1961 Map of Jacksonville

About this map

Jacksonville and the surrounding coal-country settlements of the Sunday Creek valley appear here in a landscape heavily defined by extraction and mid-century topography. The map illustrates a dense concentration of mining activity, with numerous Strip Mines and Tipple sites peppered along Trimble Ridge and Oregon Ridge. These industrial features sit alongside a network of small communities like Trimble, Glouster, and Millfield, where the Township High Sch and multiple family cemeteries like Lefever Cem and Sands Cem anchor the local history.
