About this map

Ohio Brush Creek dominates this southern Ohio landscape, carving a winding path through the ridges and hollows of eastern Adams County. The settlement of Lynx serves as a central hub, anchored by the Lynx Post Office and nearby landmarks like the prominent Buzzardroost Rock. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, evidenced by more than a dozen burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including the East Liberty Cemetery and the remote Mount Armenia Cemetery perched near Greenbrier Ridge.

Smaller hamlets like Cedar Mills and Dunkinsville appear connected by a complex network of local roads such as Waggoner Riffle Rd and Steam Furnace Rd. While the landscape is primarily defined by its hydrology—featuring Mill Creek, Lick Fork, and Soldiers Run—the presence of Spires Airport indicates more modern infrastructure amid the traditional family-named hollows and ridges that characterize the area.
