About this map

Claysville and Antioch sit within a high ridge-and-valley landscape where the Mineral County and Grant County line crosses steep terrain. This 2023 edition reveals a rural network defined by the massive spine of New Creek Mountain and the parallel Knobly Mountain. Historically significant family sites are documented throughout the valleys, including the McDonald Cem near the northern border and the Knobley Cem to the south.

Transportation is anchored by the historic path of US Rte 50, which winds through the gap at Claysville. For those interested in the natural topography of the Allegheny Front, the map provides clear detail on the numerous gaps and ridges such as Chamberlin Gap, Dolls Gap, and Hamricks Gap. The drainage patterns of New Creek and Mill Creek illustrate the historical settlement patterns along these narrow fertile corridors.
