About this map

Cedar Creek and its many winding tributaries define the rural landscape of this Gilmer County region. At the center of this drainage network sits Cedarville, marked by its Cedarville Post Office and several family-named burial grounds including Burk Cemetery. The geography is characterized by an intricate web of runs and forks, such as Little Bull Run and Duskcamp-Left Fork, which historically dictated the placement of small settlements and homesteads.

Genealogists will find a wealth of specific local landmarks, from the Moss Cemetery in the north to the Engel Cemetery further south. Smaller communities like Moss, Dusk, and Cutlips are connected by a network of rural routes and roads such as Walker Fork Rd and Exchange Rd. The map illustrates a quiet, dispersed settlement pattern typical of West Virginia's interior, where life and travel are oriented around the valley floors of Steer Run and Toms Run.
