About this map

Quinwood and the surrounding coal-country settlements of Crichton, Marfrance, and Leslie occupy the rugged terrain where the Nicholas and Greenbrier County line bisects the landscape. The region's industrial and social infrastructure is evident along the Coalfield Trail and the banks of Meadow Creek, connecting smaller hamlets like Bellburn and Orient Hill. To the south, the village of Charmco sits near the confluence of Laurel Creek and the Meadow River.

The landscape is defined by high elevations, including Big Clear Creek Mountain and Rich Knob, where the Rich Knob Lookout Tower stands as a landmark for forest observation. To the north, a portion of the Monongahela National Forest covers the terrain near Brushy Meadow Creek, while historical local sites like the Mountain Cemetery near Carl and the Bamboo School provide valuable reference points for genealogists researching the area's families and community centers.
