    Sites and Townships Specific To This Map Are: Jackson, Middleton, Wilkesville, Harman, Harrisonville, Millersburg, Martinsville, Hockingport, and Parkersburg.

    The following towns are featured: in May of 1850, the directors of the B&C chose to bypass Hillsborough and connect to the H&C at Blanchester, thus placing Hillsborough at the end of a branch line. This infuriated the directors of the H&C. In March of 1850 the B&C changed it∆s name to the Marietta and Cincinnati and announced it∆s intention to build to Marietta thence up river to Bellaire (across the river from Wheeling) instead of Belpre (across the river from Parkersburg). This infuriated the directors of the B&O. Fearing that an alliance between the M&C and the Pennsylvania Railroad could keep them out of Cincinnati and St. Louis, the B&O supported the H&C in making this survey from Hillsborough to Parkersburg. This map shows the portion from Jackson, OH to Parkersburg, WV.

    • ONLY ACCEPT THE BEST PRINT QUALITY FOR YOUR REPRODUCTIONS - There are many printers and print types available on the market, when purchasing a reproduction there is no finer quality reproduction than a reproduction using the Giclee Printing method.

The Giclee process, combined with a 12 mil thick paper, creates magnificent historical maps guaranteed not to fade, yellow, or crack for more than 100 years. The quality of these matte-finish maps is recognized by museums and galleries around the world.

    Matte Canvas
    Ideal for framing, the poly/cotton blend archival-grade canvas will satisfy even the most discriminating taste.
