About this map

Ohio River navigation and riparian settlements define this stretch of the West Virginia and Ohio border. The river's winding path is punctuated by features like Wolf Bar, Weaver Bar, and the large Letart Island near the southern bend. Communities such as New Haven, Hartford City, and Syracuse are established along the northern bank, while smaller hamlets like Antiquity and Letart Falls occupy the opposite shore. The map details a landscape of narrow runs and creeks, including Broad Run and West Creek, which have shaped the local topography.

Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial grounds, including the Upper Flats White Church Cem, Union Cem, and Evergreen Cem. The map also identifies natural landmarks like the Elroy Kaylor Spring and the Rayford Roush Spring, alongside man-made water bodies like Finlaw Lake. These points of interest, combined with the network of county routes such as Co Rte 62/16 and Co Rte 6, offer a detailed view of the rural infrastructure connecting the river towns.
