1957 Map of Spencer
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The city of Spencer serves as the focal point of this mid-century West Virginia survey, revealing a landscape defined by the convergence of steep Appalachian ridges and narrow valley floors. The community is characterized by established institutions like the State Hospital and College Hill, while the Baltimore and Ohio rail line tracks through the valley near Nancy Run. The map provides a detailed view of local infrastructure just before significant 1970s updates, documenting a web of family and community landmarks such as Walker Chapel, Spencer Memorial Cem, and Gandee Chapel.
