The West Fork Little Kanawha River meanders through the heart of this Central West Virginia landscape, anchoring several small communities along its banks. The settlement of Arnoldsburg serves as a local hub near the junction of US Rte 119 and Arnoldsburg Rd, while other locales such as Rocksdale, Richardson, and Mount Zion are connected by a network of winding county roads. The terrain is defined by high ridges like Egypt Ridge and Husk Ridge, which separate numerous stream valleys including Henry Fork and Jesse Run. Genealogists will find a wealth of family history sites across this territory, from the Arnoldsburg Cem and Liberty Hill Cem to more remote burial grounds like the Starcher Cem and Carpenter Cem. The crossing at Rocksdale Bridge represents a key point of passage in this river-bottom and ridge-top topography.
