2016 Map of Mount Storm

About this map

Mount Storm and the high ridges of the Allegheny Front define this landscape along the border of Mineral and Grant Counties. This terrain is marked by deep resource extraction and family history, evidenced by the Kitzmiller Mine and a high density of small burial grounds such as Kalbough Cem, Blackburn Cem, and Dixon Cem. The network of local roads, including Sulphur-Hartmansville and Strip Job Rd, connects small settlements like Emoryville and Sulphur City to the surrounding hills. Waterways like Abram Creek and the North Branch Potomac River carve through the geography, while prominent heights like Mount Pisgah and Number 7 Hill provide significant local landmarks. The presence of numerous named cemeteries near the hamlets offers a detailed look at the genealogical footprint of these Appalachian communities.
