1960 Map of Lake Lynn

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Cheat Lake and the Cheat River dominate this 1960s-era landscape along the West Virginia and Pennsylvania border, revealing a region defined by recreational development and heavy industry. The map illustrates the growth of settlements like Cheat Neck and Tyrone alongside established landmarks such as the Clay Furnace and the Sand Spring Lookout Tower. The extensive Strip Mines and numerous quarries throughout the Springhill and Union districts contrast with the protected lands of Coopers Rock State Forest and Mont Chateau State Park. Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the placement of rural institutions, including the Sugar Grove Sch, Pletcher Chapel, and family burial sites like Donaldson Cem and Blaney Cem. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor traces the riverbank, connecting industrial sites like the Power Station to the broader regional network.
