2010 Map of Middleway

About this map

Opequon Creek and its many tributaries, including Turkey Run and Middle Creek, define the landscape of this Jefferson County region during the early 21st century. The settlement of Middleway sits at a historic crossroads, surrounded by smaller communities such as Leetown, Egypt, and Summit Point. For genealogists, the map identifies several significant interment sites, most notably the Washington Burial Ground near Aldridge and Harewood, alongside Johnsontown Cemetery and Fairview Cemetery. This 2010 survey reflects a rural environment where land use is still heavily influenced by water access and traditional road networks, such as the Leetown Pike and Kearneysville Virginia Line Rd. The inclusion of river crossings like Dandridges Ford and Whitmores Ford provides evidence of long-standing travel routes through the valley, even as residential pockets like Jefferson Village show modern development patterns.
