About this map

Norwich and Chandlersville anchor this survey of Muskingum County, showing a landscape defined by deeply carved stream valleys and a network of rural settlements. The topography is dominated by the drainage of Salt Cr and its many tributaries, including Georges Run, Frog Run, and Pleasant Run. To the north, the corridor around New Concord and Sundale follows the high ground of the E Pike, while to the south, Buffalo Fork winds through a more dispersed agricultural area.

Genealogists will find significant detail in the numerous burial sites across the townships, from the Norwich Methodist Cem and Norwich United Presbyterian Cem in the north to the Rich Hill Cem and Rock Spring Cem further south. Small-scale landmarks like the Salt Creek Bridge and Derry Landing Strip Airport appear alongside historic crossroads such as Smith Mill, Bridgeville, and Freeland, providing a clear record of local transportation and community centers as they existed in the early 21st century.
