2019 Map of Oceana

About this map

Huff Mtn dominates the central landscape of this Wyoming County region, where the deeply carved valleys of Huff Creek and Clear Fork dictate the pattern of human settlement. The town of Oceana sits at the eastern edge along the Laurel Fork, serving as a gateway to the steep ridges that define the West Virginia coalfields. This 2019 survey documents the extensive network of hollows that house tightly knit communities such as Lillydale, Lillyhaven, and Lyncó. Along the western slopes of the mountain, Coal Mountain and the small settlement of Uno are connected by winding routes like Coal Mountain Rd and Strip Mine Rd, reflecting the industrial legacy of the terrain. Genealogists will find the Milty T Morgan Cem near Toler Hollow, a specific point of interest for family research in this densely wooded area where many small streams like McDonald Mill Cr and Jacob Cook Br converge.
