2016 Map of New Martinsville

About this map

New Martinsville and its northern neighborhood of Steelton dominate the eastern bank of the Ohio River in this modern survey. The map details the intricate topography of the Allegheny Plateau, where family-named landmarks like Schupbach Ridge and Parsons Ridge rise steeply from the river valley. The region's infrastructure is defined by the Korean War Veterans Memorial Bridge and the Richard Snyder Memorial Bridge, which connect West Virginia to Ohio, while industrial activity is visible at Natrium and the 3a-3a Slurry Impoundments 3. Genealogists will find a dense network of upland burial sites, including Mount Zion Cem, Huff Family Cem, and Parsons Cem, many tucked away on high ridges such as Wayne Ridge and Burch Ridge. The town's transition from an industrial river hub to a community with modern amenities is reflected in the New Martinsville Walking Trail and the development around Greenlawn Memorial Park.
