About this map

The Guyandotte River carves a winding path through this West Virginia landscape, anchoring the city of Logan and a string of mountain communities. This 2014 survey documents the dense corridor of residential additions and named settlements that follow the river and Island Creek, including Aracoma, West Logan, and Mount Gay-Shamrock. For family historians, the map is a vital resource, plotting numerous small burial grounds such as Old City Cem, George F Browning Cem, and Mullens Cem along the steep hillsides.

Industrial and transport infrastructure is prominently featured, from the Logan County Airport on the northern ridges to the intricate network of bridges spanning the river, including the William J Abraham Memorial Veterans Bridge and Dingess Street Bridge. The map highlights the intersection of local topography and development, where deep hollows like Stratton Hollow and Bandmill Hollow have long influenced the placement of roads and neighborhoods.
