the Mason and Dixon survey went
only to Dunkard Greek, a tribu-
tary of the Cheat and MonOnga-
hela Rivers on the borders of
Preston and Monongalia counties,
w. Va. and Fayette County, Pa.
TURNING EASTWARD after
reaching Dunkard Greek, Mason
and Dixon built mounds of earth
and stone heaped around wooden
posts to mark the line. These
helped the surveyors of 1900 in
locating spots to erect more per-
manent markers.
The original Mason-DiXon map
is in the Land Office at Annap-
oils.
1t is interesting to note that
the famous survey of 1877 years
ago had nothing to do with locat-
ing the western boundary of Mary
land. This was described in the
original charter granted to Lord
Baltimore by King Charles l as
the true meridian of the first
fountain of the River PotoWmack."
The only assignment Mason and
Dixon had was to run the straight
line west that would mark Penn
sylvania's southern border and
Maryland's northern border. Dur
ing the Civil War this line be-
came more famous as the demarca-
ton between the North and the
South, the Union and the Con-
federacy.
AS THE extension of the Ma
son-Dixon Line westward, beyond
Maryland, marks the border be-
tween Pennsylvania and West Vir-
ginia for approximately SIS miles,
it was agreed by the two states in
1888 to join in an accurate survey
of the north-south boundary and
also the western border of Penn
sylvania where it meets the North
ern Panhandle of the Mountain
State. The U. S. Coast and Geodet-
ic Survey assigned c. II. Sinclair
to direct this project, and it was
when this engineer reached the
northwest corner of Garrett Coun-
ty (the eastern terminus of his
survey which began at the south
west corner of Pennsylvania that
he erected the stone marker
known as the Sinclair Stone. This
is not an exact location monu-
ment.
THE ORIGINAL stones erected
by Mason and Dixon were cut in
England and shipped to the col
onies. Several of these were left
in the Sideling Hill area when it
was found too difficult and eXpen-
sive to transport them farther
west by wagon. A century later
some of these crown stones" were
located in use as horseblocks, door
steps and in the walls Of buildings
in Washington County. The monu-
ment which marked the end OF
the 50th mile west from the start
ing point of the survey was found
in the possession of the Maryland
Historical Society in Baltimore.
The Society agreed to furnish an
exact replica in white marble if al
lowed to retain the original. This
was done.
Pennsylvania, gwen the same
decided to locate its

survey the SO monuments erect.
ed along the Western Maryland
northern boundary were quarried
at Cockeysville, this state. These
posts are four feet, six inches
long and ten inches square, ter
minating in a flat pyramid. The
letter p is on the north face and
the letter NJ on the south side.
On the east and west sides are
the dates 1766-1767 and 1902, the
latter representing the Resurvey

miles west of here) inundated No.
PIP. There is report that this
latter was removed, but the loca-
ton is now covered by water.
Photographs we're taken in 1850
of the PA existing monuments
that mark the Pennsylvania-M Mary
land border, the markers being at
mile intervals.
Some Of the stones are dam
aged, a few have toppled over and
several are almost covered by soil
and debris.
MUCH OF THE country through
which the historic Mason-Dixon
Line runs is rough and heavily
wooded The nearest road points
to Cumberland. Crossed by the
boundary are U. S. 22O North; the
roads to Wellersburg-Berlin; Ell
lerslie-Hyndman; Valley to Bed
ford Road, and the road to Lake
Gordon.
One of the original markers
mo 45) was taken from the Mary
land Delaware boundary and
sent to the st. Louis Worlds Fair
in 1904 but never returned.
The original Mason-DiXon mile
stones antedate the milestones on
the Cumberland Road (U. S. 400
by more than half century. Both
are to the U. S. as was the APP
plan Way to the Rowan Empire.
Both are closely related to Cum
berland. But how many Cumber-
land area people think of driving
their guests a few miles to cross
the most famous border in Ameri-
can history-the Mason Dixon
Line?

way planners say this "will be
the most concentrated area of
road building" in the city in
the next "a months.
In the long-range plans for
the new ramp construction at
First street and the freeway
will ultimately connect with the
center leg of the inner loop.
The exact location Of the center
leg, however, has not yet been
pinpointed.
Plans are firm enough for
placement of the permanent
ramp but construction of the
center leg route is still some
years away. The center leg will
eventually bring freeway traffic
northward to join the north
leg of the inner loop, probably
somewhere near Florida avenue.
Highway planners expect to
move ahead later with plans for
extending the freeway into
Southeast where it will follow
Virginia avenue and connect
with a large interchange at
Eleventh street to the Ana
costa River bridges.
