About this map

Fredonia and the surrounding rural landscape of Licking County are defined by a network of small settlements and the winding tributaries of the Otter Fork Licking River. This 2023 survey documents the enduring settlement patterns of the region, where crossroads hamlets like Decrow Corners, Barrick Corners, and Cokesbury Corners serve as landmarks in a primarily agricultural expanse. The topography is shaped by watercourses such as the Clear Fork Licking River and Brushy Fork, which drain the varied terrain of the central Ohio highlands.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites identified across the townships, including the Old Fredonia Cem, Appleton Cem, and the Clark-Schroer Cem. These sites, along with smaller plots like Moorehead Cem and Liberty Cem, mark the legacy of the area's early families. Modern infrastructure is represented by roads such as Johnstown-Utica Rd NW and Marion Rd NW, which follow historic corridors through the county’s rolling hills.
