The Licking River winds through the heart of Licking County, defining a valley where small settlements like Hanover and Claylick took root alongside historic transportation corridors. This 2016 survey shows the eastern edges of Newark and Heath as they meet the more rural landscape of London Hollow and Coshocton Hill. The geography is notably punctuated by several local knobs, including Bucks Knob, Bald Knob, and Coffman Knob, which rise above the surrounding creek beds of Claylick Creek and Bowling Green Run. Genealogists will find a high concentration of established burial grounds, from the Bowling Green Cemetery near Marne to the Pleasant Chapel Cemetery and Oakhill Cemetery further south, mapping the long-standing community footprint of the region.
