About this map

The confluence of Shavers Fork and Black Fork creates the Cheat River at the town of Parsons, the geographic heart of this 1968 study. The Western Maryland railroad follows these river valleys, connecting the community of Bretz to the neighboring rail towns of Hambleton and Hendricks. This network underscores the importance of the river corridor for both transportation and industry, with a Quarry located near the rail line.
