1949 Map of McHenry

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Deep Creek Lake dominates the central and southern portions of this landscape, its complex shoreline defining the local geography with prominent features like Marsh Run Cove and Cherry Creek Cove. Located just after the war, the map reveals the area's transition into a recreational and conservation hub, anchored by the Thayer State Game Refuge and the Thayerville Lookout Tower. The settlement of McHenry sits at the northern tip of the lake, while the village of Thayerville occupies the southern narrows near Glendale Bridge.

Tracing the ridges of Negro Mountain and Meadow Mountain, the survey documents a rural mountain economy transitioning away from isolated homesteads. Local family history is preserved through labels for the Beachy Sch, Casselman Sch, and several community anchors such as Glade Ch and Glendale Cem. The northern edges of the sheet toward Accident show a network of small runs and hollows, including Shingle Camp Hol and Brushy Hollow, that feed into the Bear Creek drainage system.
