About this map

Killbuck Creek dominates the drainage of this central Ohio landscape, winding through a valley that connects several small crossroads communities including Killbuck, Layland, and Blissfield. The topography reveals a complex network of runs and creeks, such as Hoagland Run and Doughty Creek, that have carved the terrain into distinct ridges and hollows. Transport is defined by the W & Le Rr corridor following the main waterway, supporting the village centers while rural township roads like TWP RD 324 and TWP HWY 71 reach into the upland areas.

Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Weatherwax Cem, Fox Cem, and Bucklew Cem. The northern portion of the map is marked by the developed shoreline of Lake Buckhorn, providing a sharp contrast to the more traditional rural patterns found near the Holmes and Coshocton county line. This map documents the persistent rural character of the region alongside modern residential development.
