2016 Map of Richmond

About this map

Richmond serves as a central hub in this corner of Jefferson County, where the topography of the Appalachian Plateau is defined by prominent ridges like Timothy Ridge and Quaker Ridge. The landscape is etched by a dense network of watercourses including Claw Lick Cr, Town Fork, and Wolf Run, many of which drain into the recreation area surrounding Jefferson Lake. The mapping reflects a long-settled rural character, preserved in the numerous family and denominational burial grounds scattered across the townships, such as the Old Union Cem and the Wallace Private Cem.
