About this map

Spruce Fork and its numerous tributaries, including Sixmile Creek and Hewett Creek, carve through this section of Logan County, West Virginia. The landscape is defined by the valley-floor settlements that follow these waterways, reflecting the region's historical reliance on narrow bottomlands for transportation and community life. Significant for genealogists, the area is dotted with family-named burial grounds such as Stolling Cemetery, multiple Ball Cemeteries, and Hager Cemetery. Postal hubs like the Ramage, Hewett, Sharples, and Blair serve as focal points for the small communities of Coal Valley, Ottawa, and Greenview. Terrain features like Indian Grave Hollow and Daniel Hollow speak to the local naming traditions of the Appalachian hollows, while the path of Spruce Laurel Fork indicates the complex drainage patterns of the coalfield highlands.
