The Tygart River winds through the heart of Barbour County, anchoring a landscape where coal mining and rural life intersected in the mid-1920s. Centered on the historic seat of Philippi, the map captures the community before modern development, showing the importance of the Baltimore and Ohio RR as it follows the river valley to serve industrial outposts like Century and Galloway. Small hamlets such as Berryburg and Meriden are shown at their height, supported by an extensive network of country schoolhouses like Pigtail School and Mudlick School.
