Cheat Mountain - as it exists today - is nowhere near Monongalia County or Morgantown. The easiest way to hit Cheat Mountain is via Route 50 between Grafton (WV) and Keyser (WV). There are a number of mountains (5 of them - to be exact) that made that stretch of Route 50 one of the worst driving roads in the East (before interstates).

People looking into my families have mentioned Pisgah, as well as the area that is now Cheat Lake. I'm going to keep looking to see if Cheat Mountain and Cheat Hill are the same. By the way, I did have a Wolfe or two rattling around one side of my tree a couple of hundred years ago, although I can't remember right now exactly who/when.
