About this map

Wayne National Forest covers much of this landscape, where the ridges of southeastern Ohio are marked by deep historical boundaries including the North Boundary Donation Tract and the West Boundary Old Seven Ranges. The area is defined by a dense network of streams such as Duck Creek and Pawpaw Creek, with small settlements like Dalzell and Germantown appearing as centers of local activity.

Evidence of early industrial and resource extraction is scattered throughout the hills, indicated by numerous Gas Well sites and a Strip Mine in the northwest. Genealogy researchers will find several well-documented burial grounds and meeting houses, including the Masterton Cem, Liberty Cem, and the Waxler Ch. The map also captures the path of State Route 145 as it winds through the township of Bethel and down toward the banks of the Little Muskingum River.
