1960 Map of St. Clairsville
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
St Clairsville serves as the focal point of this Belmont County survey, where the historic National Road and U.S. Highway 40 intersect at the county seat's courthouse. The landscape is a complex mix of civic infrastructure and coal-country topography, featuring the County Home, County Sanatorium, and County Experimental Farm just west of the main settlement. The industrial character of the era is evident through the numerous strip mines and mine dumps that dot the hillsides, particularly around Bannock and Fairpoint. Transportation networks are densely packed, with the B & O RR and the New York Central RR carving paths through valleys like those of Wheeling Creek and McMahon Creek. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several burial grounds, including the Union Cemetery, Butcher Cem, and the Wesley Chapel Cemetery near Chapel Hill.
