About this map

Gambier sits atop the northern bluffs of the Kokosing River, anchoring this section of Knox County where rural landscapes meet academic and small-town settlement. The terrain is defined by a dendritic network of waterways, including the winding Delano Run and Big Run, which carve through the farmland. Local commerce and agriculture are represented by the sprawling Glen Hill Orchards, while small regional aviation is facilitated by Wynkoop Airport and Port Kenyon Airport.

Tracing family histories is particularly productive here, as the landscape is dotted with ancestral burial grounds such as Saint Johns Cemetery, Kenyon Cemetery, and the Owl Creek Cemetery. The transition between the river valley and the interior uplands is marked by smaller named hamlets like Hunt and Morgan Center, connected by a grid of rural routes like Hopewell Rd and Sycamore Rd. This map captures the area just as the North Fork Licking River begins its course in the southern reaches of the quadrangle.
