1961 Map of South Parkersburg
USGS Topo · Published 1989About this map
South Parkersburg and the winding Little Kanawha River define this 1960s landscape, illustrating the suburban expansion and industrial footprint of Wood County during the mid-century. The map captures a detailed grid of residential streets south of the river, punctuated by local landmarks like the Edison Jr High Sch and South Parkersburg High Sch. Beyond the urban core, the terrain shifts into the ridgelines and hollows of Lubeck and Tygart, where small settlements such as Larkmead, Pettyville, and Mineralwells are scattered along early road networks like Telephone Road.
