1992 Map of Hallsville

About this map

Tar Hollow State Forest dominates the southeastern quadrant of this region, where the ridge-and-hollow topography of the North Ridge contrasts sharply with the flat agricultural plains of The Prairie to the north. Small rural settlements like Whisler, Hallsville, and Adelphi serve as historic anchors along the Pickaway Co Ross Co County Line Road. The landscape is dotted with numerous family-named burial grounds and rural houses of worship, such as Salem Reform Ch and the Maple Grove Cem. Significant drainage systems including Salt Creek and Kinnikinnick Creek carve through the terrain, illustrating the transition from open farmland to the wooded elevations of Tar Hollow State Park. This area maintains a traditional rural character, with scattered Gravel Pits and a Racetrack near Adelphi indicating local industrial and recreational footprints.
