About this map

New Lexington serves as the focal point of this Perry County landscape, centered on the Perry County Courthouse and a grid of streets including Main St and Eastern Ave. The town is flanked by a significant number of historical burial grounds, such as Saint Aloysius Cem and New Lexington Cem, which provide valuable location data for genealogists. The terrain north of town is defined by Rush Creek and the settlement of Rehoboth, while the southern portion of the map transitions into the wooded ridges of the Wayne National Forest.

Evidence of the region's industrial and environmental history is seen at the Sunnyhill Slurry Impoundment near Moxahala. The map also captures several smaller outlying communities like Bristol and McCuneville, alongside distinctive physical features such as Wilson Mound and Skinner Ridge. These labels, combined with features like the First Methodist Church, offer a comprehensive view of the area's developed and natural character.
