2019 Map of Tioga

About this map

Tioga and Delphi serve as central points in this portion of the West Virginia highlands, where the Birch River cuts through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The settlement patterns follow the winding paths of numerous runs and forks, including Rockhouse Run and Clear Fork, highlighting a landscape shaped by narrow valleys and steep ridges. This 2019 survey documents the enduring presence of small communities and family landmarks such as the Barnett Family Cem and Armstrong Cem, which remain vital for genealogical research in Nicholas and Webster counties.
