1954 Map of Mc Dowell

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The narrow hollows and steep ridges of Floyd Pike define this 1954 topographic survey, where settlement is tightly bound to the winding creek beds. Along Beaver Creek, the communities of McDowell and East McDowell serve as local hubs, while smaller outposts like Hi Hat and Orkney occupy the valley floors. The industrial character of the era is evidenced by the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad line tracing the southern edge of the map, and a Tipple located near Drift, indicating the region's active coal mining operations.
