About this map

Hendrysburg and Fairview sit along the path of the Old National Rd, anchoring a landscape in Belmont County where rural crossroads and family burial grounds remain central to the local geography. The area's settlement pattern is defined by small communities like Sewellsville, Egypt, and Olivett, each connected by a network of township roads that follow the ridges above Stillwater Creek and Skull Fork.

Modern infrastructure and industry are evident through the Barnesville-Bradfield Airport and the specialized industrial water management seen at the Consolidation Coal Company Pond 0010. To the north, the waters of Piedmont Lake and the State Route 800 Reservoir indicate the mid-century transformation of the local hydrology for flood control and recreation. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous small cemeteries, including Old Egypt Cemetery and Gibson Cemetery, which preserve the names of early families in this corner of Ohio.
