2019 Map of New Concord

About this map

Muskingum University serves as the cultural anchor for the village of New Concord, a community defined by its rolling topography and historical position along the National Road corridor. This survey illustrates the rural landscape of eastern Muskingum County, where the Muskingum and Guernsey county line bisects a network of winding waterways including Crooked Cr and its northern branch. The settlement pattern remains centered on traditional crossroads, with smaller hamlets like Claysville and Rix Mills connected by historically named routes such as Clay Pike and Rough and Ready Rd. Several local cemeteries, including East Union Cem and Cedar Cem, are scattered across the higher elevations, providing vital points of interest for genealogical research. The presence of Ohio Power Company Pond Mur-3 indicates the area's later industrial and utility development amidst the numerous runs and creeks that carve the terrain.
