About this map

Albany and the surrounding rural townships of Athens Co and Meigs Co are defined by a complex network of ridgeline roads and winding creek valleys. The landscape is dotted with ancestral burial grounds such as Town House Cem, Rawlings Cem, and Martin Cem, providing essential points of interest for those tracing local family lineages. The presence of Ohio University Airport-Snyder Field and the Boyd Allen Dairy Farm north of town illustrates the varied land use of the region, ranging from educational infrastructure to traditional agriculture.

Waterways like Leading Cr and the W Br Shade River dictate the topography, while small hamlets like Pageville, Carpenter, and Dyesville anchor the outlying areas. To the north, Lake Snowden serves as a prominent landmark near the headwaters of Margaret Cr. The map's detailed road network, featuring routes like Us-50 and Oh-681, reveals the connectivity between these scattered settlements and the larger county seats.
