Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Airport occupies the central plateau of this Wood County landscape, where the rising terrain of Ashby Ridge and Spider Ridge meets the Ohio River valley. The map reveals a dense network of family-named landmarks and rural congregations, such as Bethel Presbyterian Church Cem and Mount Moriah Church Cem. Small residential developments like Mustang Acres and Oakwood Estates are interspersed among older named locales including Boreman, Tallyho, and Waverly. Drainage patterns are intricately detailed, from the southern reaches of Gillespie Run to the Worthington Creek valley. Numerous small family plots, including the Mayo Cem, Pugh Cem, and Sharp Prince Cem, offer significant detail for genealogists tracing historical landholdings and community roots in this part of West Virginia.
