2023 Map of Man

About this map

The Guyandotte River cuts through the northeast corner of this map, anchoring the town of Man, while the rugged southern border marks the divide between Logan and Mingo Counties. This region is characterized by a dense network of mountain hollows and branches, where settlements like Sarah Ann, Stirrat, and Crystal Block follow the winding course of Island Creek. The landscape reflects a deep-rooted local history, evidenced by several family burial grounds including two distinct locations for Hatfield Cem and the Browning-Grimmet Cem near Bruno. Along the southern edge, US Rte 52 connects Hampden and Sharon Heights as it traverses the heights near Horsepen Mountain. The intricate drainage patterns of Browning Fork and Sandlick Creek illustrate the topographic complexity that has long dictated the placement of roads and communities throughout the coalfields.
