1916 Map of Richlands

About this map

Richlands and Cedar Bluff anchor the southeastern corridor of this 1914–1915 survey, where the Norfolk and Western railway follows the Clinch River valley through the heart of the Appalachian coal country. The landscape is defined by its deep ridges and gaps, including Keen Mountain, Red Root Ridge, and Jewell Ridge, which separate the myriad creek branches that sustained early 20th-century mountain communities.
