This map shows the locations in 1860 of homes in Jefferson County, WV (in the eastern Panhandle), outside its small towns of Harpers Ferry, Bolivar, Charles Town, and Shepherdstown. Structures, in most cases, still remain as of 2011, according to a survey by the Jefferson County Historic Landmarks Commission.
