About this map

The county seat of St Clairsville serves as the central hub of this survey, where the historic National Road meets a growing network of modern interchanges. This intersection of eras is visible in the placement of the Courthouse and Union Cemetery alongside newer developments. To the west, the landscape transitions into agricultural and institutional uses, including the County Experimental Farm and the County Sanatorium.

The southern and western reaches of the quadrangle are defined by the winding path of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, which connects several smaller settlements. Villages such as Warnock, Bannock, and Glencoe follow the valleys of McMahon Creek and Wheeling Creek. Family-named landmarks and local sites like Galloway Knob and the Alderman Airport provide essential points of reference for genealogists tracing ancestors through this part of Belmont County.
