About this map

Williamsburg and Frankford serve as the primary anchors for this Greenbrier County landscape, where the topography is defined by intricate drainage systems and karst features. Small settlements such as Sunlight, Unus, and Brantville are connected by a network of rural routes like Frankford Rd and Unus Rd. The area is notably dense with natural springs, including the distinctive McFerrin Breakdown Cave Spring and Watts Black Cave Spring, indicating a complex subterranean water system typical of this West Virginia region.

Genealogists will find several significant burial grounds throughout the quadrangle, notably Wesley Chapel Cem, Pilgrim Rest Cem, and the Frankford Cem. The terrain shifts from the elevations of Butler Mountain and Miller Ridge down to the valleys of Burns Run and Milligan Creek. This survey captures the region's enduring rural character, where small family-named landmarks like Tuckwiller Spring and Kathy Faris Spring persist alongside established agricultural communities.
