1967 Map of Summersville

Local genealogy is well-supported by a dense network of landmarks, including rural churches like St Martins Ch, Bennett Memorial Chapel, and the Jordan Chapel. Smaller communities such as Persinger and Canvas are detailed alongside family-named features like the Groves Cem. The landscape ranges from the heights of Lonetree Mtn to the managed waters of the U.S. Reservation Boundary, reflecting the mix of traditional Appalachian settlement and modern federal infrastructure during the late 1960s and 1970s.
