USGS Topo · Published 1925About this map
The Cheat River winds through the heart of Preston County, carving a deep valley that historically dictated the path of industry and transit in West Virginia. This 1925 edition, based on earlier surveys by A. M. Walker and J. R. McMillen, illustrates a landscape dominated by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad as it follows the river's contours through Rowlesburg and Tunnelton. The mapping reveals a dense network of one-room schoolhouses such as Union School and Grange Hall School, reflecting the decentralized rural life of the era.
