About this map

The Little Coal River and its major forks define the economic and social geography of this region during the early 20th century. Following the 1929 culture revision, the map shows the extensive Chesapeake and Ohio rail infrastructure necessary for timber and coal transport, including significant engineering feats like the Pinnacle Tunnel and Blue Tom Tunnel. The county seat of Madison serves as a central hub, flanked by Danville and East Madison, while numerous smaller communities like Uneeda, Alkol, and Griffithsville are scattered along the narrow valley floors.
