About this map

Olive Green and the surrounding rural townships of Delaware County exhibit a landscape deeply connected to its pioneering roots and nineteenth-century church congregations. The area is defined by the intricate drainage of Big Walnut Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Walnut Creek and Culver Creek. This terrain dictated the placement of early crossroads settlements and the numerous small burial grounds that serve as vital records for genealogists, such as Preacher Davys Graveyard and the Old Blue Cem.

Transitioning from the north into Licking County at Condit, the map captures the late-era character of a region that remains largely agricultural. Notable local landmarks like Stark Corners and Vails Corners mark the intersection of historical county roads, while churchyards like the Mount Pleasant Methodist Episcopal Churchyard stand as enduring community anchors. The survey also traces the path of Perfect Creek and Dry Run as they carve through the gentle topography south of North Condit.
