1962 Map of Radnor

About this map

The West Fork Twelvepole Creek carves a deep path through the heart of Wayne County, serving as the primary corridor for settlement and transit. In this 1962 landscape, the village of Radnor and the smaller community of Genoa occupy the valley floor, connected by winding roads that shadow the water's edge. The region’s coal and gas resources are evident through numerous Gas Wells and a Strip Mine located near Grassy Fork. The Southern portion of the map is dominated by the Cabwaylingo State Forest, while the northeast reflects the impact of the East Lynn Lake project. Genealogy researchers will find numerous family burial grounds scattered across the ridges, including the Dad Wallace Cem, Perry Memorial Cem, and Marilyn Napier Cem, alongside rural social hubs like Bethel Ch and the Billy Branch Sch.
