2013 Map of Rockbridge

About this map

The Hocking River carves through the transition between Fairfield and Hocking Counties, anchoring a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and deep valleys. The village of Sugar Grove sits at the northern edge of this corridor, while Rockbridge occupies a strategic bend in the river further south. The topography is notably complex, featuring the prominent Cantwell Cliffs and several named hollows like Wildcat Hollow, Peterson Hollow, and the curiously named Toad Hollow. Numerous family and church cemeteries, including the Old Catholic Cem, Whippoorwill Cem, and Saint Matthews Lutheran Cem, are scattered across the uplands, providing a dense record of early rural settlement and genealogy. The map also traces established drainage patterns through Clear Creek and Brushy Fork, alongside small crossroads like Mound Crossing.
