About this map

Johnstown serves as the primary hub of this 1961 Licking County survey, which was updated in the early 1980s to show new woodland and development patterns. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Licking River and its numerous tributaries, including Raccoon Creek, Lobdell Creek, and Otter Fork. Small rural intersections and gathering points like Twelve Corners and Concord appear alongside older established nodes like Hartford Croton PO.

Genealogists can find significant local landmarks such as Green Hill Cemetery, Miller Ch, and Concord Ch, while the southern portion of the map near the Country Club and Beaver Lake shows the gradual shift from agricultural land to residential and recreational use. The entire region is framed within the original United States Military District, with surveyors noting fine details like field lines and fence boundaries visible from 1959 aerial photography.
