The Greenbrier River cuts through the northwest corner of this 1920s landscape, where the town of Ronceverte serves as a gateway to the complex ridges of the Allegheny Mountains. The survey reveals a rural society built on a network of small schoolhouses and country churches, such as Bruffey Church and Highland Green School. Travel in the era followed the contours of the land, with the Chesapeake and Ohio and Norfolk and Western railroads skirting the mountain bases.
