About this map

The steep terrain of Kanawha County is deeply dissected by drainage systems like Campbells Cr and Witcher Cr, where small settlements occupy the narrow valley floors. In this central West Virginia landscape, villages such as Rensford, Putney, and Blount are reached by winding roads that trace the contours of the numerous hollows, including Slatelick Hollow and Eightmile Hollow. Family and community history is preserved at several hillside burial sites, such as Hunter Cem and Patterson Cem, which overlook the complex network of forks and branches. The southern portion of the map transitions toward more established areas like Mammoth and Ward, illustrating the classic Appalachian pattern of concentrated mountain communities shaped by the proximity of water and accessible coal-bearing geology.
