The town of Inez serves as a central hub in this Appalachian landscape, where narrow valleys dictate the pattern of settlement and industry. By the mid-1950s, the region's economy is clearly defined by an extensive network of Gas Wells and significant Strip Mine operations that dominate the southern ridges. Small rural communities like Davella and Tomahawk are anchored by local institutions, including the Davella Ch and Sulphur Spring Ch, which provided social structure for the families living along the winding forks of the Big Sandy River watershed.
