About this map

Wills Creek defines the landscape of this eastern Ohio region, winding past several small rural communities and family landmarks. The settlement of Plainfield serves as a central hub, accompanied by the nearby Plainfield Cemetery and Plainfield Post Office. Moving downstream, the waterway reaches Linton Mills and Birds Run, where local history is preserved at the Birds Run Methodist Episcopal Cemetery. The map reveals a deeply rooted agrarian and industrial past, evident in the numerous small burial grounds like the Miskimen Family Cemetery and the Schweitzer Cemetery that dot the countryside.

Industrial and modern footprints are visible through the Peabody Coal Company Pond 0115-011 and the Tri-City Airport near the northern border. Terrain features such as Roahrig Hill and named intersections like Cooks Corners and Lawyers Corners provide a detailed look at the local geography. The presence of Lake Lila and various runs, including Bacon Run and Twomile Run, suggests a well-watered territory defined by its drainage patterns and small-scale land improvements.
