1912 Map of Meadow Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Meadow River and New River define the high-plateau landscape of this central West Virginia region, where timbering and small-scale agriculture once dominated. At the turn of the century, the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway provided the vital connection for coal and timber transport along the river canyons, passing through Sandstone and near the dramatic Sandstone Falls. The interior of the sheet is marked by a dense network of one-room schoolhouses, including the uniquely named Rock of Ages School and Bachelors Hall School, reflecting the scattered rural population of the era.
