About this map

The Muskingum River flows through the western edge of this Muskingum County landscape, anchored by the community of Adamsville in the east. The river corridor is marked by hydraulic and institutional landmarks, including Ellis Dam and the nearby Zanesville State Nursery. The interior terrain is defined by the branching network of Symmes Creek, with numerous smaller tributaries like Blount Run and Beech Run carving the uplands.

Genealogists and local historians will find a high density of rural burial grounds, such as Bethesda Cemetery and Salem Church Cemetery, which speak to the area’s early 19th-century settlement patterns. Named ridge roads like Mutton Ridge Rd and Church Hill Rd connect these historic sites to small centers like East Greenwood and Spencer, reflecting a persistent rural structure even as late as 2010.
