2019 Map of Mallory

About this map

The Guyandotte River carves a deep path through the southern coalfields of Logan County, connecting a string of industrial and residential settlements such as Man, Greenville, and Gilbert. This 2019 survey documents the intricate geography of the hollows, where communities like Claypool, Mineral City, and Gillman Bottom are tucked between steep ridgelines like Buffalo Mtn and Huff Mtn. For local historians and genealogists, the map identifies several family-named burial sites, including McDonald Cem and the Browning Cem. Notable infrastructure includes the William C Browning Bridge near Verner, illustrating the critical role of river crossings in this winding terrain. The map also delineates the Guyandotte Water Trail, highlighting the river's contemporary role for recreation alongside established mountain settlements like Mallory and Christian.
