1965 Map of Orlando

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Little Kanawha River carves a winding path through this central West Virginia landscape, serving as a primary geographic anchor for the rural communities of Salt Lick and Collins Settlement. During the mid-1960s, this region was defined by a scattered network of small hubs like Bulltown, Napier, and Orlando, the latter situated at a junction of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The map documents an economy and social structure tied to the land, evidenced by numerous Gas Wells and Oil Wells dotting the hillsides, alongside vital local institutions such as St Michaels Ch, Olive Chapel, and the Riffle Sch. The terrain is characterized by sharp ridges and deep runs, including Clover Fork and Knawl Creek, where family history is etched into the topography through sites like Casta Cem and Ratcliff Sch.
