About this map

Williamsport serves as a focal point along the Maryland and West Virginia border, where the meandering Potomac River meets the Conococheague Creek. This mid-century survey illustrates a dense network of transportation infrastructure, including the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal following the river's edge and multiple major rail lines like the Western Maryland and Pennsylvania railroads. The landscape is dotted with small rural communities such as Downsville, Bakersville, and Grimes, reflecting a traditional agricultural and industrial layout.
