USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
Williamson and the surrounding coal country of Mingo and Pike counties appear here during a period of intense industrial and civic development. The Norfolk and Western Ry follows the winding course of the Tug Fork, linking coal-patch settlements like Chattaroy, Borderland, and Nolan along the Kentucky-West Virginia border. The map reveals an intricate network of narrow hollows where remote schools served local families, including Harmon Manor School, Lowe School, and Elkins Fork School.
