2016 Map of Marietta

About this map

The confluence of the Muskingum River and the Ohio River anchors this regional hub, where the historic city of Marietta sits opposite Williamstown across the state border. This landscape is uniquely defined by its ancient earthworks and commemorative sites, notably the Conus Mound and the adjacent Mound Cemetery. The urban layout reflects its status as an educational and civic center, housing both Marietta College and the Washington State Community College. Northward, the Muskingum valley is dotted with residential developments like Devola and Rathbone, while the rugged hills to the east are carved by Duck Creek and Little Muskingum River. The area’s genealogical record is remarkably dense, featuring numerous burial grounds including Harmar Cemetery, Old Saint Marys Cemetery, and the Lynch Church Cemetery nestled near Stanleyville.
