1968 Map of Mount Andrew

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices diagonally across the northeastern portion of this Barbour County landscape, marking a significant historical line of demarcation near Mount Andrew. The terrain is defined by a series of south-flowing drainage systems, including the Pea River, Stinking Creek, and Williams Mill Creek, which fed local industry at the Williams Millpond. This late-1960s survey reveals a rural society organized around crossroads and country churches. Numerous small congregations like Street Memorial Ch, Shady Grove Ch, and Evergreen Ch are found alongside local schoolhouses such as Robinson Sch and Center Ridge Sch. Settlements like Garmon Crossroads, Beatty, and Bells Crossroads serve as the primary hubs for this agricultural region, where the roads often follow the natural contours of prominent features like Center Ridge.
