About this map

The Conrail corridor and the rolling hills of the Perry and Muskingum county line define this mid-century landscape. Concentrated along the banks of Jonathan Creek, the community of Fultonham (Uniontown) stands as a primary hub alongside its neighbor, East Fultonham. The presence of numerous extraction sites, including a Strip Mine and a Gravel Pit, underscores the industrial character of the region during this period of development.

Genealogists will find a high density of rural landmarks, from the Unity Cem near Grange Hall to the quiet Wesley Chapel and Zion Ch. These scattered community centers, alongside schools like the Madison Sch and Clayton Sch, reveal the social fabric of settlements like Sego, Saltillo, and Redfield. The map also traces a significant Pipeline and various local waterways including Turkey Run and Buckeye Fork.
