About this map

State Game Lands No 53 dominates the central landscape of this Fulton County region, where the ridge-and-valley terrain creates a distinct north-south orientation for settlement and transport. High atop the ridge sits Meadow Grounds Lake, a significant water body positioned between Scrub Ridge and Meadow Grounds Mountain. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, marked by numerous small churches and family landmarks such as Wink Cem and the uniquely named The Supreme Council of the House of Jacob.

Lower elevations follow the winding course of Licking Creek, which carves through the western portion of the survey. The settlement of McConnellsburg appears on the eastern edge, while smaller locales like Harrisonville and Andover serve as anchors along the roadway network. A notable Pipeline cuts directly across the southern ridges, illustrating the mid-century infrastructure developments that intersected this traditional agricultural and timber landscape.
