2010 Map of Hayfield

About this map

Great North Mountain and its many ridges dominate the landscape west of Hayfield, where the Hayfield Post Office serves as a central landmark. The area is defined by a series of parallel ridges including Flint Ridge, Hunting Ridge, and Little North Mountain, which channel the flow of Hogue Creek and Opequon Creek. Settlement is concentrated in small communities and named locales such as Shawnee Land, Rosenberger, and Mount Williams. Industrial activity is evident in the northern reaches at the Unimin Tailings Dam near Fresh Water Pond. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and burial grounds, such as Mount Olive Cemetery, Wisecarver Cemetery, and the Lamps Memorial Church Cemetery, which are scattered throughout the valley floors and gaps.
