About this map

Teays Valley serves as a central corridor for this part of Putnam County, characterized by a dense network of modern residential developments and established post offices. The landscape transitions from the suburban clusters of Scott Depot and Teays Village to more rugged terrain marked by Hickory Knob and Coal Mountain. Water features are prominent throughout the quadrangle, ranging from the sizeable Lake Ann Tormey and Dickinson Lake to the meandering course of Hurricane Creek.

Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial sites like Bowling Cemetery and Lawrence Cemetery, alongside family-named landmarks such as Wells Hollow and Kirk Hollow. The map also captures specialized community spaces like Camp Happy Valley and the Sleepy Hollow Township, reflecting the area's growth as a residential hub between Charleston and Huntington. Numerous small tributaries, including Poplar Fork and Scary Creek, define the drainage patterns that have historically shaped the valley's settlement.
