1969 Map of Sugar Grove

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Sugar Grove U S Naval Radio Station occupies a significant portion of the landscape along the Little Potomac River, a unique installation amidst the agrarian and forested terrain of Pendleton County. This 1969 survey, photorevised in the early 1980s, captures a network of small mountain communities including Sugar Grove, Dahmer, and Moyers. The rugged topography is defined by prominent features such as Sharp Ridge, Sugar Grove Mountain, and Hoover Mountain, which hem in the narrow valleys where local life centered around rural landmarks like St Lukes Ch and Thorn Ch. The map details the transition between settled valley floors and the protected timberlands of the George Washington National Forest. Evidence of long-standing family land use is found in labels like Propstburg and Propst Gap, while numerous cemeteries scattered across the slopes offer valuable data for genealogical research in this Appalachian corridor.
