About this map

The Knoxville vicinity of Jefferson County, Ohio, reveals a landscape defined by deeply incised hollows and a dense network of country cemeteries. The terrain is marked by significant drainages such as Island Creek and the North Fork Wills Creek, which create a series of ridges where historic settlements like Shady Glen and Taylortown are located. This modern survey shows the expansion of Wintersville and Steubenville toward the south, where the Eastern Gateway Community College Jefferson County Campus and the Jefferson County Courthouse Number Two serve as regional hubs.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites scattered throughout the quadrangle, ranging from the Coulter Private Cem to the established Island Creek Presbyterian Cem and Mount Tabor Cem. The map also captures specialized land uses like the Eddie Dew Memorial Airpark near the eastern border and the sprawling Fort Steuben Burial Estates, illustrating the complex mix of institutional, residential, and rural land use near the West Virginia border.
