1969 Map of Sugar Grove

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The South Branch Potomac River winds through the heart of this Pendleton County landscape, where the ridges of Dickinson Ridge and Sharp Mountain Ridge dictate the pattern of human settlement. In the late 1960s, small agricultural communities like Sugar Grove, Propstburg, and Dahmer remained connected by winding mountain roads and country churches, including Calvary Ch and St Lukes Ch. A significant military presence is documented at the Sugar Grove US Naval Radio Station, which occupies a specialized site within the valley. The map reveals the deep integration of public land, as much of the southern territory falls within the George Washington National Forest. Local families and genealogists will find numerous small cemeteries and landmarks like Thorn Spring Park and Socrates Mtn that help define the historical geography of these remote Appalachian hollows.
