About this map

The Scioto River and its confluence with Paint Creek define the geography of this part of Ross County. The eastern portion of Chillicothe occupies the northwest, where the grid of city streets meets several large burial grounds, including Grandview Cemetery and Greenlawn Cemetery. Moving southeast along the river valley, the landscape transitions from urban centers to a network of smaller named settlements such as Renick, Schrader, and Massieville.

Local topographic features like Mount Logan and Bunker Hill overlook the river bottomlands. This area contains numerous family-named landmarks and hollows, such as Coon Hollow and Moss Hollow, which illustrate the traditional settlement patterns along the tributaries of Indian Creek. Downstream at Three Locks and Deadman Crossing, the map records the enduring influence of early river and rail infrastructure on the local terrain.
