1966 Map of Paint Bank

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The mountain-and-valley landscape of the West Virginia and Virginia border comes into sharp focus in this mid-1960s survey. The community of Paint Bank sits at the junction of the Potts Creek valley, where an Old RR Grade follows the water's edge, signaling the area's older industrial transport patterns. To the northwest, the settlements of Centennial and Roxalia are framed by the massive ridges of Peters Mountain and Sweet Springs Mountain. This survey details the rural infrastructure of the era, recording local congregations at Pine Grove Ch and Cokesbury Ch, alongside family burial grounds like Bostic Cem. The inclusion of Moncove Lake and its Boat Ramp contrasts with the working-land features of the Jefferson National Forest, where a single Mine label and various timber-lined ridges define the high country.
