2019 Map of Cedar Grove

About this map

The Kanawha River carves a deep valley through the center of this terrain, anchoring a dense string of riverside settlements from Chelyan and East Bank to Cedar Grove and Pratt. This late 2010s survey shows a landscape where industrial infrastructure and local heritage intersect, particularly visible in the numerous cemeteries that dot the hillsides. Of particular historical significance is the Virginias Chapel Slave Cem near Glasgow, alongside other family and fraternal sites like the Lacie-Gray-Morris Cem and the Independent Order of Oddfellows Cem. Moving south away from the main river, a network of hollows—including Mill Hollow and Whites Hollow—guides the development of smaller communities like Sharon, Miami, and Dawes along the winding course of Cabin Creek. The map also details modern crossings such as the Admiral T J Lopez Bridge, reflecting the ongoing importance of the river corridor for regional connectivity.
