About this map

The Ohio River carves a deep valley between the borders of Ohio and West Virginia, anchoring a landscape defined by industrial activity and upland ridges. Along the river's bends lie settlements like Powhatan Point, Clarington, and Natrium, which serve as focal points for the region's transportation and industry. The western bank is marked by a sequence of significant water management features, including Quarto Mine Number Four Dam Number One and Dam Number Two, which sit just north of the village of Franklin.

Away from the river, the terrain rises into prominent landforms such as Arman Ridge and Kansas Ridge, dotted with numerous family and community burial grounds like Ebenezer Cem and Rine-Yoho Cem. The map tracks several local thoroughfares, including the Warrior Trail, which crosses Captina Creek near Graysville. This documentation provides a clear view of the rural and industrial geography where Belmont, Monroe, and Marshall counties converge.
