2011 Map of Williamsburg

About this map

Fort Donnally and Williamsburg anchor this rural Greenbrier County landscape, where the karst topography of the Appalachian plateau is evidenced by unique water features like Sinking Creek and Matts Black Cave Spring. The settlement pattern follows a network of ridge and valley roads, connecting small communities such as Unus, Sunlight, and Brantville. The map captures a transition from agricultural bottoms to prominent elevations like Butler Mountain and Miller Ridge. Local history is preserved in sites like the Pilgrim Rest Cemetery and the Williamsburg Post Office. This survey provides a modern view of traditional West Virginia hollows and flats, including Thorny Hollow and Chestnut Flat, illustrating how the early frontier outposts have evolved into a quiet landscape of fishing lakes and rural homesteads near the eastern edge of the quadrangle at Frankford.
