1901 Map of Ceredo

Beyond the industrial riverfronts, the map reveals numerous small settlements and named drainages such as Twelvepole Creek and Whites Creek. Inland, the terrain is marked by rugged hills in districts like Westmoreland and Butler, where smaller communities like Centerville and Ryansville are connected by a web of local roads. The map captures the region at a moment when the river-and-rail economy was at its height, providing a clear view of the early 20th-century footprint of towns like South Point and Coal Grove.
