About this map

Little Raccoon Creek and Raccoon Creek wind through this southeastern Ohio landscape at the tri-county juncture of Jackson, Vinton, and Gallia. The settlement pattern is defined by small communities such as Buckeye, Keystone, and Mulga, which are linked by a network of winding township roads. Historically significant crossings like the Buckeye Furnace Bridge and the Ponn Humpback Covered Bridge near Minerton underscore the region's early industrial and transport heritage. Family history is anchored in numerous burial grounds, including the Franklin Cemetery, Mt Carmel Cem, and Pattonsville Cem. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations like Hothouse Ridge, while numerous watercourses such as Dickason Run and Indiancamp Run drain the valleys. This area reflects a quiet rural character, where small clusters of homes and isolated farmsteads are scattered along routes like Oh-124 and Oh-346.
