About this map

Claysville sits at the northern edge of this landscape, where the Dutch Fork drainage defines the local geography. The area's agricultural and rural character is clearly mapped through an extensive network of ridge roads, including Beham Ridge Rd and Burnsville Ridge Rd, which follow the high ground between numerous stream valleys. Genealogy researchers will find several well-documented burial grounds, such as Saint James Cemetery near the western border and the Trussel Cemetery in the southeast.

The central and southern portions of the sheet are dominated by the intricate branching of Robinson Fork and Templeton Fork. Water management is prominent in the northern section, evidenced by the Claysville Number One Reservoir and the Claysville Number One Dam. Cultural landmarks like the Double Dam Golf Course and prominent local elevations such as Sampson Hill provide clear reference points for those studying the 21st-century topography of Washington County.
