1994 Map of Reinersville

About this map

Extensive Strip Mines and a complex industrial conveyor system dominate the hills of Morgan and Noble counties in this mid-1990s survey. The landscape of the Bristol and Manchester townships is defined by heavy extraction activities that carve through the ridges between Meigs Creek and Olive Green Creek. Despite the massive industrial footprint, small rural settlements like Reinersville and Hackney persist, anchored by a dense network of local family cemeteries and country churches. The presence of a conveyor system stretching across the central hills highlights the scale of resource transport during this era. Genealogists will find a wealth of named landmarks, including Kuntz Cem and Emery Ch Cem, tucked into the valleys of Dyes Run and Horse Run, while topographic landmarks like Browns Knob provide a sense of the original elevation before mining operations.
