How to Use This Lafferty, Ohio Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lafferty, Ohio. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Ohio or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Lafferty.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Lafferty occupies a quiet span of earth where the persistent, winding course of Wheeling Creek defines the low-lying rhythm of the landscape. It lies 19.1 miles east-southeast of West Chester, OH (from West Chester, OH: bearing 116°T), and is situated 6.7 miles west-northwest of St. Clairsville. The terrain rises from these damp, shaded banks into a series of uneven elevations, eventually folding upward toward the distant, silhouetted spine of Campbell Ridge. During the late afternoon, the light filters through the canopy in thin, slanted bars of amber, illuminating the deep, rich soil that has long anchored this corner of the state. To the north, the terrain remains rugged and untamed, offering a stark contrast to the managed, expansive fields that stretch toward the horizon.

Coal once provided the singular, heavy pulse of the local economy, shaping the architecture and the collective memory of the families who settled here to labor in the dark seams. Today, the legacy of that extraction remains visible in the quietude of the surroundings, where the industry has retreated to make room for a slower, more deliberate pace of life. Residents often look toward the Egypt Valley Wildlife Area, a vast expanse of reclaimed land that serves as a sanctuary for deer and birds, reclaiming the scars of the past with a thick, green resurgence. While the bustle of larger commercial centers feels worlds away, Lafferty maintains a solitary dignity, connected more to the seasonal shifts of the nearby woods than to the transient demands of the modern world.
