About this map

Tioga and Birch River anchor this 2014 survey of the central West Virginia highlands, where the Webster Co Nicholas Co boundary snakes through the high ridges. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the Birch River and Big Beaver Cr, which carved the steep valleys of Josh Hollow and Eller Hollow. This edition captures the rural settlement patterns along the mountain roads, where small communities like Boggs and Delphi remain connected by historical routes like the Widen-Dille Rd.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of family burial sites throughout these hills. The map precisely locates several remote grounds, including the Barnett Family Cem and the Amos Cem. The concentration of these cemeteries alongside features like Strouds Cr and Mudlick Run provides a clear view of the deep family ties and early homesteads that shaped this part of Nicholas and Webster counties.
