About this map

Union serves as the central hub of this Monroe County landscape, situated at the junction of Us-219 and WV-3. The area is defined by its deep historical roots, evidenced by several significant burial sites including Old Rehobeth Cem and Green Hill Cem. To the southwest, the Indian Creek Covered Bridge stands as a notable landmark where the highway crosses Indian Creek.

The geography is a complex network of ridges and hollows, such as Earson Hollow and Swoopes Knobs, which direct the flow of numerous waterways like Lick Run and Dropping Lick Cr. Smaller settlements like Salt Sulphur Springs and Willow Bend are connected by a web of rural routes, including Back Creek Rd and Willow Bend Rd. Local mineral springs, such as Iodine Spring and Sweet Sulphur Spring, point to the region's history as a destination for those seeking natural waters.
