About this map

Felicity serves as a primary inland hub on this sheet, connected to the Ohio River by a network of rural roads and creek valleys. The landscape is defined by the significant drainage systems of Bullskin Creek and its various branches, which carve through the terrain toward the river bank. Along the northern shore of the Ohio, the small settlements of Rural, Utopia, and Cedron appear as riverside outposts, while Augusta and Wellsburg anchor the southern bank.

Genealogists will find an exceptional density of burial sites scattered across the township, including Mount Zion, Hard Scrabble, and Shinkle Ridge. Evidence of the historic river-based economy is preserved through landmarks like Smith Landing and the Boudes Ferry crossing, which once facilitated essential transport between the Kentucky and Ohio shores. These features highlight the area's transition from a ferry-dependent river corridor to a modern road-based agricultural region.
