Buckhannon and its southern extension, South Buckhannon, serve as the primary hubs in this early 20th-century landscape where river valleys dictate the path of commerce. The Pickens Br of the B & O RR snakes along the banks of the Buckhannon River, linking timber and coal outposts like Alexander and Sago. The rural infrastructure is remarkably dense, characterized by a high concentration of neighborhood schools such as Indian Camp School, Nobo School, and Hanging Run School, which were the social anchors for scattered families in the hollows.
