2014 Map of Barnabus

About this map

Pigeon Creek and its many winding tributaries like Spice Br and Mate Cr carve through this landscape at the border of Logan and Mingo Counties. The 2014 survey reveals a region defined by industrial land use and long-standing family history, with modern infrastructure like the Appalachian Regional Airport sitting near the National Refuse Dump Number 25. Genealogists will find a high density of family burial grounds throughout the hollows, including multiple locations of the Hatfield Cem, alongside the Varney Cem, Musick Cem, and Chafin Cem. Settlements such as Red Jacket, Newtown, and Barnabus follow the narrow valley floors, connected by a network of secondary roads and routes like Us-52 and WV-44. Significant water features like the Red Jacket Impoundment reflect the local environmental and industrial management of the era.
