2019 Map of Madison

About this map

The Boone County Courthouse serves as the focal point for the riverside communities of Madison and Danville along the winding banks of the Little Coal River. This 2019 survey documents a landscape defined by steep Appalachian topography, where development follows the narrow corridors carved by the Pond Fork and Spruce Fork as they converge. Numerous family cemeteries, including Riley Hill Cem, Echols Cem, and Vandelinde Cem, are situated on the hillsides above the valley floor, providing a detailed record for genealogists researching Boone County lineages. The transition from historical river-based transport to modern infrastructure is marked by several named spans, such as the LT Darwin K Kyle Memorial Bridge and the Benjamin Price Bridge. To the south and east, the terrain rises sharply toward Workman Knob, with smaller settlements like Uneeda, Quinland, and Foch established at the base of the ridges.
