About this map

West Fork River defines the geography of Lewis County here, winding through a corridor of historic settlements and industrial sites. In the north, the Jacksons Mill State 4-H Camp and the adjacent Jacksons Mill Lake occupy a prominent bend in the river, reflecting the area's long-standing connection to agricultural education and rural development. The landscape is a complex network of narrow creek valleys like Hackers Creek and Stonecoal Creek, which have historically dictated the placement of roads and homesteads.

Industrial activity and local infrastructure are visible through features like the Weston Dam and the West Virginia Department of Highways District 7 Shop. For those tracing family history, the map is densely populated with small burial grounds such as McCann Run Cemetery and Jesse Run Cemetery, alongside larger sites like Machpelah Cemetery. The proximity of Louis Bennett Field to the town of Weston highlights the region's mid-century transportation and aviation growth.
