Morgantown serves as the focal point of this regional study, which details the early industrial and educational character of Monongalia County at the turn of the century. The University sits near the bend of the Monongahela River, while the steep eastern hills are marked by the remnants of the iron industry, including Clinton Furnace, Clay Furnace, and the Laurel Iron Works near Ice's Ferry. The convergence of the Cheat River and the Monongahela defines the northern border at Point Marion, illustrating how waterways shaped early commerce.
