About this map

Halleck sits at the heart of this landscape where Monongalia, Marion, Taylor, and Preston counties converge. The terrain is defined by the high ground of Kincaid Knob and the long stretch of Bunners Ridge, while the drainage network includes Whiteday Cr and the southern flow of Three Fork Creek. The area is notably dotted with several family and community burial grounds, such as Summers Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and McConkey Cem, offering significant value for genealogical research in this rural Appalachian corner. Small settlements like Victoria, Hardman, and Irontown are located along the eastern edge, following the valleys near the Preston County line. The presence of the Hope Halleck United Methodist Church Cem serves as a central landmark for the local community, illustrating the enduring relationship between church, cemetery, and settlement in these hills.
