SURVEY NORTH AND SOUTH

J. c. Sanders, kcyscr w. Va, prcSi-
dent of the Mineral County Historical
Society, in an article that appeared
sometime ago, tells Of an early Ilamp-
shire engineer, who helped survey the
Mason and Dixon Line between the
North and South. He says:
Few people of the South Branch
and Patterson Creek Valleys realize
the debt they owe to the pioneer civil
engineers of those early days.
Foremost among those early sur
veyors during the days of settlement
of these two valleys was none other
than Joseph Nevill, who was at vari-
Gus times, from 1850 to 1900, the legal
civil engineer or surveyor for Fred
erick, Hampshire, Hardy, Pendleton
and for the once newly formed county
of Youghiogheny. In fact, for over a
half century Joseph Ncvill was the
only licensed surveyor west of the
Blue Ridge.
