2019 Map of Antrim

About this map

Antrim and Middlebourne anchor this portion of Guernsey County, where the landscape is defined by the winding drainages of the Salt Fork and its numerous tributaries. The region's settlement history is etched into the terrain through a high density of small burial grounds, including the Antrim Presbyterian Cem and Salt Fork Baptist Cem. These sites, alongside others like Pisgah Cem and Fletcher Cem, suggest a deeply rooted rural community structure organized around early church congregations and family plots. The topography is notably marked by Hogback, a distinctive ridge feature, while several forks—Brushy Fork, Millers Fork, and Skull Fork—carve the upland into a complex network of narrow valleys and ridges. Transport follows these natural contours, with roads like Bridgewater Rd and Cadiz Rd connecting the scattered homesteads and small hamlets across the township boundaries of t3n r1w and t10n r7w.
