About this map

The Tug River serves as the winding boundary between West Virginia and Kentucky in this 1909 survey, anchoring a region defined by narrow valleys and the emerging coal industry. Small rail stops and mining communities like Thacker and New Thacker appear alongside industrial sites such as Thacker Mines, illustrating the extraction-based economy of the Mingo County area. The map documents early post offices at Edgarton and Okeeffe, providing critical location data for genealogists tracking family branches in Magnolia or Lee districts.
