1904 Map of Vadis

USGS Topo · Published 1913

About this map

The West Virginia counties of Doddridge and Lewis meet along a ridge-and-hollow landscape defined by its complex drainage network. Surveyed at the dawn of the twentieth century, the region's geography is anchored by rural centers like New Milton, Vadis, and Freemansburg, which served as vital collection points for the surrounding agricultural and logging operations. The intricate topography is carved by numerous waterways, including the winding Meathouse Fork and the Righthand Fork, where small farmsteads and schools typically followed the narrow valley floors. The presence of Sugarloaf provides a distinct landmark amidst the repetitive hills. The boundary line between Doddridge, Harrison, and Lewis counties follows these high ridgelines, illustrating how natural elevation shaped early political and property divisions in this part of the state.
