1971 Map of Richardson

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Levisa Fork carves a deep, winding path through the borderlands of Lawrence and Johnson counties, serving as the primary corridor for the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. This river-and-rail network anchored the economic life of the region, connecting riverside settlements like Richardson and Henrietta with the coal and timber resources of the interior. The landscape is heavily defined by extractive industry, with numerous Mines and Gas Wells scattered across the ridges, and significant Strip Mines appearing near Lowmansville and Wolf Pen Branch.
