2002 Map of Lewisville

About this map

Wayne National Forest and the Monroe Lake State Wildlife Area dominate this southeastern Ohio landscape at the turn of the 21st century. The map centers on the village of Lewisville, where the presence of the St Sylvester Ch and the nearby Friendship Cem highlight the enduring community roots in the Summit township area. The terrain is deeply carved by the Seneca Fork Wills Creek and Sunfish Creek, creating a network of ridges and hollows such as Hogue Hollow and Moose Ridge. Historically significant burial sites, including the Free Burial Ground and German Cem, are preserved near the smaller settlements of Miltonsburg and Monroefield. The map also documents active resource extraction, with numerous Oil Wells peppered across the hillsides, reflecting the region's long-standing connection to the petroleum industry.
