1968 Map of Murdock

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Baltimore and Ohio and Western Maryland railroads snake through this Somerset County landscape, following the deep cut of the Casselman River and the base of Negro Mountain. This survey illustrates a region defined by its extractive industries and heavy infrastructure, where extensive Strip Mines and several Reclaimed Strip Mines pockmark the hillsides between the settlements of Murdock and Blackfield. The presence of a Tipple near Shober and multiple Gravel Pits reflects the area's mid-century economic reliance on its mineral resources.
