2002 Map of Gore

USGS Topo · Published 2006

About this map

Wayne National Forest dominates this section of the Hocking Valley, where the terrain is marked by the legacy of early industrial extraction. Numerous quarries, a Strip Mine, and the historic Bessie Furnace near Oreville illustrate the region's reliance on coal and iron ore. The CSX Transportation line follows the winding course of Monday Creek, connecting small settlements like Monday Creek Junction and Sand Run Junction that once served as vital nodes in the local mineral economy. Local genealogy is anchored by family-named landmarks such as the Rhodes and Huddle Cem and Wells Chapel, providing specific points of reference for researchers tracing residents of vanished hamlets like Old Gore or Paine Crossing.
