2013 Map of Rogersville

About this map

Nineveh sits at the junction of Browns Cr and several rural ridges, anchoring a landscape defined by narrow valleys and deep hollows. This portion of Washington County is characterized by a dense network of country lanes, including Deerlick Station Rd and WW Railroad Rd, which trace the path of earlier transportation corridors. In the southern reach of the map, the community of Rogersville lies along the S Fork Tenmile Cr, where local landmarks like Norman Hollow and Muddy Hollow meet the creek's winding course. Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named features such as Devils Half Acre and Swarts Hl or find the small settlements of Rutan and Deer Lick. The terrain is marked by significant ridges like Hopewell Ridge and Beulah Ridge, illustrating the traditional Appalachian settlement patterns where homesteads followed the fertile bottomlands and accessible gaps.
