About this map

The Columbiana Co Carroll Co line bisects this landscape where the rural economy of the mid-twentieth century was defined by a mix of coal extraction and agriculture. Industrial activity is concentrated at the Mardis Strip Mines and various other Strip Mines in the northwest, contrasting with the dense network of country churches and cemeteries that anchor the local communities. Small settlements like Kensington and Summitville are linked by the Penn Central railroad, while an Old Railroad Grade and several pipelines trace the changing infrastructure of the region.
