About this map

Gnadenhutten serves as the focal point of this Tuscarawas County landscape, situated along the banks of the Tuscarawas River. The area preserves deep local history at Gnadenhutten Historical Park and the adjacent Townhall, while the presence of Lock Seventeen and the Lock Seventeen Cem points to the legacy of the Ohio and Erie Canal. The terrain is a mix of agricultural valley floor and upland industrial activity, evidenced by a significant Oil Field and multiple extraction sites like the Strip Mine and Sand and Gravel Pit.

Moving away from the river, the map reveals a network of rural communities and crossroads, including Gilmore and numerous country churches such as Canaan Hill Ch and West Union Ch. Educational and civic infrastructure is represented by the Indian Valley High Sch and several cemeteries, including Kennedy Cem and Township Cem, which provide valuable points of reference for genealogists tracing family roots in the Clay and Rush townships.
