About this map

The Muskingum River serves as the central artery for this region, dividing the sister towns of Malta and McConnelsville. This 2013 survey illustrates the civic and industrial layout of these riverfront communities, highlighting the Muskingum River Lock and Dam Number 7 and the nearby Morgan County Fairgrounds. The topography is defined by significant ridges and valleys, with peaks like Buttermilk Hill and Cotton Hill rising above the watershed of Meigs Creek and Mans Fork.

Inland from the river, the landscape is dotted with several rural cemeteries and churches that provide vital markers for family researchers, including Meigs Church of Christ Cem and Pisgah Methodist Cem. A series of engineered reservoirs, such as Ohio Power Company Pond Mb-118, reflect the industrial legacy of the surrounding hills, while the Morgan County Airport sits on a plateau overlooking the winding river valley below.
