About this map

The rolling landscape of eastern Licking County and southern Knox County is defined by the headwaters of the Rocky Fork and its numerous tributaries. This survey captures the rural character of Mary Ann and Madison Townships, where small crossroads like Purity and Hickman serve as anchors for the surrounding agricultural community. The drainage pattern is complex, featuring Lost Run, Painter Run, and Smokeyrow Run carving through the terrain.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Eden Church Cem, Miles Chapel Cem, and Smith Chapel Cem. A notable modern landmark is the Boy Scout Memorial Bridge, while the aviation history of the area is represented by Flyers Park Airport. The map also traces the winding courses of Wilkins Run and Long Run, illustrating how the local road network, such as Martinsburg Rd and Pleasant Valley Rd NE, adheres to the natural topography of the valleys.
