About this map

West Fork Twelvepole Creek carves a winding path through this corner of Wayne County, dictating the placement of settlements like Radnor and Dunlow. The terrain is characterized by a high density of family cemeteries and ridges, reflecting a deeply rooted local genealogy. Significant family burial sites such as the Watts and Perry Cem, Stiltner Cem, and Marilyn Napier Cem are found on elevated ground overlooking the many branches and forks that feed the main waterway.

Transportation throughout the region relies on the north-south corridor of WV-152, which crosses the water at the Everett Dillon Memorial Bridge near Radnor. Named ridges like Lycans Ridge and Napier Ridge divide the landscape into numerous hollows, including Millhouse Hollow, each served by secondary roads such as Radnor Hill Rd and Coal Haul Rd. This map captures a rural West Virginia landscape defined by its complex topography and established family landholdings.
