About this map

The Monongahela River carves a deep, winding path through this corner of Fayette and Greene Counties, serving as a vital industrial artery at the end of the nineteenth century. This era of river-based transit is remarkably well-documented by a series of ferries, including Arensburg Ferry, Jacobs Ferry, and Hatfields Ferry, which linked the rugged river bluffs before the proliferation of bridges. Inland, the National Pike cuts across the northern landscape near Searights and Haddenville, while the Pennsylvania RR and Baltimore and Ohio RR facilitate the movement of coal and commerce.
