1966 Map of James City

About this map

James City and the surrounding industrial landscape of Elk and McKean Counties define this mid-1960s survey. The region is heavily marked by the extraction industry, with dense clusters of Oil Wells and Gas Wells punctuating the wooded terrain of the Allegheny National Forest. Transportation through these deep valleys was historically tied to the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, which threads through the northern half of the sheet, while an Old Railroad Grade indicates a shifting infrastructure in the southern sections.
