About this map

Gap Lake and a dense network of smaller basins like Roundabout Lake, Watering Lake, and Boat Lake characterize this corner of Washington County. The settlement at Grantham sits near the southern edge, surrounded by family burial grounds that offer significant genealogical value, including Lay Cem, Wood Cem, and the Deadening Cem located near Hamlin Lake.

The landscape is punctuated by distinctive terrain features such as Sand Mountain, Sexton Hill, and Chalk Hill, while the hydrography is defined by winding reaches of Wells Mill Cr and Pine Log Cr. The map reveals a suburban residential pattern emerging through named subdivisions and circuits, contrasted against the older, rural identity of the land preserved in labels like Sharpless Pond and Hicks Head.
