1961 Map of Mc Arthur

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

McArthur serves as the focal point of this early 1960s landscape, situated at the junction of the Baltimore and Ohio and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads. The era’s industrial character is clearly defined by numerous strip mines and quarries scattered throughout the townships of Elk, Madison, and Clinton. Public lands dominate the eastern and southern reaches, where the Wayne National Forest, Raccoon State Forest, and Zaleski State Forest converge. For family historians, the map records rural landmarks such as Vinton Chapel and Hilltop Ch, alongside several burial grounds like Hixon Cem and Beard Cem. The topography is marked by narrow valleys and ridges, including the site of the Oreton Lookout Tower and the small settlement of Puritan, which operated kilns near Sugar Run.
