1905 Map of Rogersville

About this map

Wind Ridge P.O. and the surrounding township of Richhill exemplify the rural character of southwestern Pennsylvania at the turn of the twentieth century. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of narrow valleys and ridges, where small settlements like Jacktown and Graysville emerged along the forks of Wheeling Creek. The map documents a period when local commerce was anchored by rural post offices and mercantile hubs like Simpson Store and Harveys P.O., predating the modernization of the road network.
