About this map

Tygarts Creek meanders through a landscape defined by industrial extraction and small rural congregations during the early 1950s. The region is marked by numerous clay pits and a dedicated coal field, pointing to the underlying mineral wealth that sustained these communities. The presence of the Old Raccoon Furnace near Raccoon Creek serves as a reminder of the area's deeper iron-smelting history.
