2023 Map of Round Bottom

About this map

Winklers Mill sits at the heart of this Monroe County landscape, where the deeply dissected plateau of eastern Ohio meets the Ohio River valley. The terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges such as Sykes Ridge, Beautiful Ridge, and Mule Ridge, which separate the winding runs that drain toward the river. This 2023 survey documents a rural topography where historic cemeteries like Mount Sinai Methodist Cem and Emma Grove Cem remain as focal points for local genealogy. The western portion of the map includes sections of the Wayne National Forest, emphasizing the transition from private agricultural holdings to protected timberlands. Along the river, settlements like Hannibal, Duffy, and Sardis anchor the lowlands, while upland hamlets such as Dairy and Round Bottom are connected by a web of township roads that follow the contours of the high ground.
