Family homestead and cemetery is on Big Sycamore Creek about 5 miles from its

road # 12 traverses Big Sycamore Creek many times from Indore down to the Elk
River, then down the Elk along the old B&O railroad track, past the old train
station to Little Sycamore Creek, then up Little Sycamore Creek past Warfield to
County Road # 1 near Indore. Eldorado is at the mouth of Big Sycamore Creek.
County Road # 12-1 runs from Warfield to near the Homestead on County
Road # 12, completing the circle of roads # 12 and # 12-1. Supplies were
shipped from Charleston up the Elk River on the B&O railroad to the train
station and then by wagon up road # 12 to the homestead. Some supplies were
purchased at Warfield, the nearest settlement, and at Indore, a larger
settlement but somewhat further away. The road to Indore was better than the
road to Warfield. Information from uncle Joseph Monroe Arbogast by
conversation and letters. The roads through this area are not improved. Many
are now only logging, gas pipeline and other utitity maintenance roads.
