About this map

Rockport and the surrounding Wood County countryside are defined by a network of ridges and winding creek valleys. This 2010 survey shows the area's rural character through its numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Smith Cemetery, Naylor Cemetery, and Prosperity Cemetery. The landscape is etched by the Tygart Creek and Pond Creek drainage systems, which dictate the path of local roads like Old US Hwy 21.

Religious and social hubs are anchored by landmarks such as the Gates Ridge Evangelical United Brethren Church Cemetery and the Central Church of Christ. Distinctive geographical features like Stephens Knob, Black Diamond Ridge, and Limestone Hill rise above the smaller settlements of Lowdell and Windy, providing a clear view of the complex topography that has shaped this part of West Virginia for generations.
