2013 Map of Hanover

About this map

The Licking River carves a central path through this part of Licking County, defining a landscape where valley settlements like Marne and Claylick meet the rising terrain of Coshocton Hill and London Hollow. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern road network surrounding Newark, while preserving the locations of numerous historic burial grounds that serve as vital links for local genealogists, including Bowling Green Cem and Spring Grove Cem. The map reveals a diverse topography, from the level expanse of Bowling Green Prairie to the dramatic incision of the Licking Gorge in the east. North of the river, the Brandt Trout Hatchery utilizes the spring-fed waters of the region, while the southern hills are dotted with peaks like Bucks Knob and Bald Knob. The presence of Swans and Hanover further identifies the long-standing transport and community hubs that have persisted along these river corridors.
