1973 Map of Largent

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Cacapon River carves deep, dramatic oxbows through the Appalachian ridges of Morgan and Hampshire counties in this early 1970s survey. The landscape is defined by the massive spine of Sideling Hill and Little Cacapon Mountain, where the river’s winding course created isolated pockets for small settlements like Largent and Forks of Cacapon. Near the southern bend of the river at Bloomery, an Iron Ore Furnace stands as a tangible marker of the region’s earlier industrial history. Local genealogy and community life are anchored by several rural landmarks, including Island Hill Ch, Mt Union Ch, and the high-elevation crossing at Spring Gap. From the riverside Quarry to the Radio Tower on the southern heights, the map documents a terrain where transportation and industry have long been dictated by the narrow gaps and steep hollows of the West Virginia panhandle.
