2010 Map of Belfast

About this map

Ohio Brush Creek and its many tributaries, including Lost Fork and Rock Lick, define the drainage patterns of this Highland County landscape. This rural area is anchored by the small settlements of Belfast, Fairfax, and Folsom, where life revolves around a network of township and county roads. Genealogists will find a remarkably dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Walker Number 1 Cemetery, Storer Cemetery, and Frazer Cemetery, reflecting generations of local residency. The landscape includes the Lake of the Woods and its associated Lake of the Woods Dam on a branch of the main creek. While mostly agricultural and residential, the map captures the quiet infrastructure of rural Ohio, from the crossroads at Jessup and May Hill to the winding course of Flat Run in the southeast.
