2023 Map of Kensington

About this map

Kensington sits at the junction of several rural townships where the borders of Carroll and Columbiana counties meet. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Sandy Creek in the north and the headwaters of Still Fork in the south, creating a dissected terrain of ridges and valleys. Small historic settlements such as Dungannon, Millport, and Summitville are scattered across the quadrangle, connected by an intricate network of local routes like Tunnel Hill Rd and Laughlin Mill Rd. This 2023 survey illustrates a region where land use remains primarily agricultural and residential, punctuated by small bodies of water like Manfull Lake and France Lake. For genealogists, the map identifies several key burial sites including Sandy Springs Cem, Roudebush Cem, and Bethesda Cem, which serve as permanent markers of the families who settled these rural crossroads.
