About this map

Wayne National Forest land covers much of this section of Lawrence County, where small rural settlements are scattered along the narrow creek valleys and ridgelines. The village of Aid sits at the junction of Symmes Creek and McLoss Cr, serving as a central point for the surrounding farming and timber landscape. Further east, the community of Scottown is marked by the Scottown Bridge and its proximity to Little Indian Guyan Cr.

Genealogists will find a high density of small family and community burial grounds, including the Locust Grove Methodist Episcopal Cem near Suiter and the Lawrence Chapel Cem in the northeast. The terrain is defined by prominent features such as Ellsworth Ridge, Greasy Ridge, and Myrtle Ridge, which dictate the winding paths of roads like Venisonham-Greasy Ridge Rd and the various township routes connecting Wilgus, Rappsburg, and Willow Wood.
