About this map

Owingsville serves as the primary hub in this portion of Bath County, situated where Slate Creek and several smaller branches meet. The landscape is defined by its numerous family burial grounds and historical meeting places, such as the Old Republican Meeting House Cem and the Gregory Burying Ground. These sites, along with smaller plots like the Latham Graveyard and Shields Cem, suggest a deeply rooted rural community structure.

Transportation throughout the area follows the winding contours of the terrain, with roads like Mt Pleasant Rd and Shields Rd connecting outlying settlements like Bethel and Reynoldsville. Notable landmarks include the Bald Eagle Bridge spanning Bald Eagle Creek and the distinct elevation of Tunnel Hill. The drainage pattern is complex, with Flat Creek, Prickly Ash Creek, and White Oak Creek carving through the hills, providing a clear picture of the region's physical geography in the late 2010s.
