About this map

The Tug Fork river defines the winding boundary of this landscape, carving through a terrain of named hollows and ridges where small settlements like Webb and Crum serve as local anchors. Family history is etched into the hillsides through numerous burial sites such as Sammons Cemetery, McCoy Cemetery, and Roman Cemetery. The topography is marked by significant elevations like Moses Fork Mountain and Wells Mountain, while the Tick Ridge Lookout Tower stands as a prominent landmark on the eastern high ground near Tick Ridge.

Waterways dominate the geography, from the larger Moses Fork to the industrial echoes of Millhouse Hollow. Transportation follows the natural contours of the land, with Webb Rd and Mudlick Rd connecting the scattered communities of Stonecoal, Hode, and Tripp. The map captures a moment in the early 21st century when these rural West Virginia and Kentucky borderlands remained centered on traditional mountain settlements and small-scale creek-valley infrastructure.
