About this map

Mount Morris and Cassville anchor this 2011 survey of the borderlands between Pennsylvania and West Virginia, a region defined by the winding course of Dunkard Creek and a dense network of country roads. The landscape is heavily marked by the history of local families, evidenced by the high concentration of small burial grounds such as Lemley Cemetery, Meyers Cemetery, and Barrackman Cemetery.

Industrial activity is also prominent along the southern corridors, with large-scale infrastructure like the Arkwright Number One Slurry Impoundment Dam and the Courtney Run Refuse Disposal Area Dam reflecting the region's mining and waste management requirements. Smaller settlements such as Pursglove, Jere, and Core—which retains its Core Post Office—are situated near major ridges and knobs like Dunkard Ridge and Chisler Knob, showing the persistent pattern of ridge-and-valley habitation in Greene and Monongalia counties.
