1969 Map of Thornwood

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Thornwood sits at the western edge of this West Virginia landscape, located where the Greenbrier River meets the East Fork Greenbrier River. The terrain is defined by high elevations and deep valleys, including the slopes of Burner Mountain, Greenbank Mountain, and Frank Mountain. This mid-century survey captures a region managed largely by the Monongahela National Forest and George Washington National Forest, where resource management is evident through features like the Buffalo Fork Dam and scattered gas wells. Recreation and timber culture are represented by Camp Pocahontas and several campgrounds and picnic areas. Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by the small Cem near the river and the presence of family-named landmarks such as Colaw Knob and Mullenax Run. The map also details the winding state and national forest boundaries between Pocahontas, Pendleton, and Highland counties along the West Virginia and Virginia border.
