2016 Map of Bourneville

About this map

Hopewell Culture National Historical Park preserves an ancient ceremonial landscape along the bends of Paint Creek. This Ross County terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, including Plyley Ridge and California Hollow, where small settlements like Lattaville and Bourneville provide central points for local commerce and community life. Genealogists can find numerous burial grounds across the township, such as the Concord Presbyterian Cem and Speakman Cem. The map illustrates the hydrological patterns of the region, from the North Fork Paint Creek to the smaller drainage of Latta Run and Cattail Run. These waterways carved the deep valleys and elevated ridges like Spruce Hill and Barger Ridge, shaping the agricultural and residential development of southern Ohio during the 21st century.
