2010 Map of Peterson

About this map

Saint Bernard Cemetery sits in the northern reaches of this landscape, serving as a quiet waypoint in an area defined by the winding waters of Sand Fork and Indian Fork. This pocket of Lewis County is characterized by small, scattered settlements like Bealls Mills, Gillooly, and Aspinall, which are linked by a dense network of valley roads following the contours of Tully Ridge. The geography is shaped by the numerous runs and forks that feed into Oil Creek, creating a series of narrow hollows where local life and travel have historically clustered. High points such as Pine Knob and Flag Knob provide topographic context to the drainage patterns of Crooked Fork and Canoe Run. The map provides a clear picture of the rural infrastructure at the turn of the decade, showing how the community hubs of Bennett and Peterson remain connected through the deep-cut stream valleys.
