1925 Map of Mingo

About this map

Huntersville and the high ridges of the Allegheny Mountains define this 1925 survey, where the Greenbrier River bends sharply around the southern edge of the quadrangle. The map captures a landscape transitioning between remote wilderness and an active timber economy, notably documented by the Lumber R. R. cutting through the northern reaches along Leatherwood Creek. Deeply tucked into the valleys of Gauley Mountain and Cheat Mountain are numerous small rural institutions, including Marys Chapel and a dense network of mountain schools like Hannah School and Swacker School. The settlement pattern follows the narrow river bottoms and gaps, from the village of Mingo in the north to the historic crossroads at Edray. High-elevation landmarks like Big Spruce Knob and Mace Knob stand as sentinels over a rugged interior where many secondary routes connect isolated homesteads and tiny communities like Cloverlick and Warwick.
