About this map

Cambridge serves as the focal point of this Guernsey County landscape, where the confluence of Wills Creek and Crooked Creek shaped the early layout of the town. The residential patterns of Browns Heights, Northwood, and East Cambridge reflect the 20th-century expansion of the city beyond its original core. Genealogists will find several significant burial sites documented, including Old City Cem and Founders Cem, which sit near the city center, while Bells Cem and Pleasant Hill Cem are located in more rural contexts to the north and east.

The northern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling waters of Salt Fork Lake, a major geographic feature that altered the local terrain. Small aviation landmarks like Taildragger Airport and Hilltop Airport are tucked into the hills, while the southern reaches are marked by the winding path of Leatherwood Creek. From the heights of Rock Hill to the outlying settlements at Five Forks and Georgetown, this survey records the modern road network and infrastructure supporting this historic Ohio crossroads.
