2019 Map of Ellsworth

About this map

Scenery Hill and the surrounding coal-country settlements of Bentleyville and Ellsworth define this portion of Washington County. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of small communities and crossroads such as Cokeburg, Beallsville, and Marianna, which developed along the ridges and valley floors. Waterways like Tenmile Creek and Pigeon Creek wind through the hills, punctuated by industrial and aviation markers like the Horne Airport. Local history is deeply embedded in the terrain, evidenced by numerous family and parish burial grounds including Saint Lukes Cem, Horn Cem, and Buckingham Cem. The convergence of historic routes like the E National Pike and Rte 917 reflects a long-standing transportation corridor between the Monongahela River and the interior highlands. Unique place names such as Black Dog Hollow and Van Voorhis Hill offer specific points of interest for genealogists and local researchers tracing ancestral lands.
