About this map

The agricultural landscape of the Pickaway and Ross County border is defined by the winding course of Deer Creek, which feeds into Deer Creek Lake in the northwest. This area maintains a strong connection to its 19th-century settlement patterns, evidenced by numerous small family burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including the Hinton Farm Cem, Arron Kellar Farm Cem, and Arthur Dunlap Farm Cem. The map provides a detailed look at the local road network that connects several established villages, such as Clarksburg, Williamsport, and Atlanta.

Industry and local history are marked by the presence of Crownover Mill near the creek, while the southern portion of the sheet shows the transition from Pickaway into Ross County. The survey illustrates the persistence of rural institutions, such as the Clarksburg Methodist Cem and Springlawn Cem, which serve as anchors for the surrounding farming communities. Waterways like Brush Cr and Plum Run dissect the fields, following the natural drainage towards the larger creek basin.
