About this map

Lenox serves as a central point in this part of Morgan County, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows. The landscape is marked by prominent elevations such as Limekiln Knob, Granddaddy Knob, and Fairfield Hill, which rise above the winding creek beds and narrow valleys that dictate the local road patterns. The drainage system is particularly intricate, featuring named waterways like Cow Branch, Lacy Creek, and Spaws Creek, illustrating the deep topographical carving characteristic of the Cumberland Plateau's eastern reaches.

Industrial and transport infrastructure is represented by the West Liberty Airport in the southwest and the winding path of Lacy Creek Church Road. Local history and genealogy are anchored by features like Cottle, Elamton, and the Jerkins Cemetery No 1 Road, along with family-named landmarks like Bolin Ridge and Gordon Ford. These labels provide a clear picture of how rural communities and access points were organized around the natural contours of the land in the early 21st century.
