2019 Map of East Ringgold

About this map

The Pickaway and Fairfield county line bisects this region of central Ohio, where a network of agricultural roads connects long-standing rural communities. Settlements like Royalton, East Ringgold, and Amanda serve as local anchors, their permanence marked by a high density of ancestral burial grounds. Genealogists can find numerous family and community sites, including the Nigh Family Cemetery, Wagner Farm Cemetery, and Chester Peters Cemetery. The landscape is defined by the drainage of Clear Creek and its many tributaries, such as Cherry Run, Muddy Prairie Creek, and Dunkle Run. These waterways carved the terrain surrounding Bunker Hill, creating the varied topography that dictated the placement of early homesteads and the winding paths of township roads like Winchester Southern Road and Lancaster Circleville Road.
