About this map

The village of Old Washington serves as the focal point of this Guernsey County survey, which documents the landscape following several decades of twentieth-century infrastructure development. The arrival of Interstate 70 and the creation of Interchange 186 altered the local topography, yet the map still preserves older landmarks like the Zane Road and the nearby County Fairground. To the north, the waters of Salt Fork Lake and the Salt Fork State Park and Wildlife Area dominate the drainage basin of the Salt Fork.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds including Winterset Cem, Glenview Cem, and Allen Cem. The presence of numerous Drill Hole labels across the hillsides suggests active resource exploration or geological testing during this era. Rural life is reflected in the scattered settlements of Winterset, Easton, and Warrentown, alongside community hubs like the Buckeye Trail High Sch and the County Home.
