About this map

Cottageville and its surrounding communities sit at a busy junction where Mill Creek meets Falls Run, forming a hub of early 21st-century settlement in West Virginia. The landscape is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, including Locust Grove Ridge and Lieu Hollow, which dictate the winding paths of roads like WV-331 and WV-62. This survey reveals a deeply rooted rural society, evidenced by the high concentration of family and community cemeteries such as Ankrum Cem and Cossin Cem.

The Jackson and Mason county line bisects the southwestern portion of the map, cutting through Kapp Ridge near the settlement of Gunville. Local water resources are prominent, with Rollins Lake and Little Horse Lake providing notable landmarks alongside larger drainages like Parchment Cr. From the small cluster at Angerona to the dispersed homes along Silver Valley, the map details a region where traditional valley settlements and highland ridge roads continue to define the geography.
