About this map

Steubenville and its northern suburbs are presented here during a period of established residential growth and institutional development. The map details the transition from the dense urban grid of Alikanna and the northern edge of the city to the expanding communities of Wintersville and Overlook Hills. A strong presence of community foundations is evident through numerous churchyards and burial grounds, including the Island Creek Presbyterian Cem, Two Ridges Cem, and the sprawling Fort Steuben Burial Estates.

Education and recreation also shape the landscape, with the Jefferson Community College campus situated near the intersection of major local arteries. To the north, the terrain becomes more dissected by wooded drainages such as Wildcat Hollow and Dungeon Hollow, where smaller settlements like Knoxville and Pekin maintain a more rural character. The map tracks the winding course of Wills Creek and its branches, which have historically dictated the placement of roads and early farmsteads in this portion of Jefferson County.
