About this map

Reedy serves as the primary hub of this rural Appalachian landscape, where Main St and WV-14 converge along the banks of Reedy Creek. The terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, such as Buffalo Ridge and Happy Hollow, which dictate the winding paths of rural routes like Liverpool Rd and Sunflower Rd. Small, dispersed settlements like Zackville, Peewee, and Sandy Summit are tucked into these narrow valleys, reflecting the historical pattern of localized mountain communities.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of family-named burial grounds across the hills, including McClung Cem, Good Hope Cem, and Pleasant Grove Cem. The boundary between Wirt Co and Roane Co meanders through the central hills, often following high ground like Cranesnest Run. This map documents a region where life follows the natural contours of the Right Fork Reedy Cr and its many tributaries.
