About this map

The Tuscarawas River carves a winding path through this corner of the state, defining the industrial and agricultural landscape of Newcomerstown. This map illustrates the intersection of mid-century infrastructure and historic land divisions, notably the Stark Patent and Oxford township lines. In the municipal center, the Cy Young Memorial Park honors the legendary pitcher who called this area home. The town's layout is grounded by its educational and spiritual centers, including East Sch, Middle Sch, and West Sch, alongside several historic burial grounds such as Union Cem.

Outside the primary settlement, the terrain shifts into a series of valleys and ridges, where smaller hamlets like Port Washington and Glasgow reside. These rural reaches are characterized by family-named landmarks like Elephant Knob and Moores Hill. Transportation networks are prominent, with the Conrail line and Interstate 77 corridor following the natural contours of the Buckhorn Creek and Wolf Creek drainage systems.
