2023 Map of Perryton

About this map

Wakatomika Creek and its many tributaries, including Brushy Fork, Winding Fork, and Nickel Valley Run, define the rolling geography of this Licking County region. The landscape is dotted with small, historic rural settlements like Fallsburg, Perryton, and Frazeysburg, which serve as anchors for the surrounding agricultural and wooded terrain. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout the area, including Fallsburg Cem, Meek Cem, and Perryton Cem, many situated on high ground or near creek bends. The map highlights the complex county boundaries where Licking, Knox, Coshocton, and Muskingum counties meet, a configuration that has historically influenced local land ownership and municipal services. Landmarks like Fox Den Knob and Ashcraft Ridge provide prominent relief points over the networks of township roads and county highways that lace the valleys.
