2013 Map of Baltic

About this map

Baltic serves as a central hub in this Appalachian plateau landscape, where the borders of Holmes, Coshocton, and Tuscarawas Counties meet. The terrain is defined by deeply dissected valleys and prominent landforms such as Dividing Ridge and Hothem Ridge, which separate the various tributaries of South Fork Sugar Creek and White Eyes Creek. This 2013 survey illustrates a rural region characterized by small settlements like Farmerstown and Ragersville, connected by a dense network of township roads. Numerous burial grounds, including W Lawn Cemetery and the Evans Creek Lutheran Cemetery, are scattered across the hillsides, reflecting a long-standing pattern of family and community-based land use. The water system is particularly intricate, with minor runs such as Brush Run and Cattail Creek carving through the elevation to feed the larger drainage basins that historically supported the local agricultural economy.
