About this map

Radnor and the surrounding hollows of Wayne County are defined by a complex network of ridges and narrow creek bottoms. The landscape is dotted with numerous family burial grounds, such as the Watts and Perry Cem, John Robertson Cem, and Marilyn Napier Cem, which reflect the deep ancestral roots of the local population. Small settlements like Genoa, Ferguson, and Dunlow are connected by winding county highways that follow the natural topography, including the Everett Dillon Memorial Bridge spanning the local drainage.

In the northeast, the waters of East Lynn Lake reach into the valleys, while terrain features like Hooker Knob, Watts Ridge, and Lycans Ridge shape the settlement patterns. The map detail highlights the traditional Appalachian land use where homes and cemeteries are concentrated along branches such as Stonecoal Br and Sam Noe Br, illustrating how the physical environment has dictated the community structure for generations.
