2010 Map of Rarden

About this map

Rarden serves as the central hub of this Scioto County landscape, where the Rarden Post Office sits near the junction of Rarden Creek and Scioto Brush Creek. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, including Ladd Ridge and Fen Hollow, which have historically dictated the placement of small settlements and family cemeteries. These burial sites, such as the Old Hackworth Cemetery and Mount Olive Cemetery, are scattered across the uplands, offering significant points of interest for genealogical research. The map captures the area's rural character, characterized by winding roads like Hackworth Hill Rd and Skidmore Hollow Rd that follow the natural contours of the land. Smaller named locales such as Mount Joy, Duke, and Youngs appear as quiet outposts along these valley routes and upland passes.
