2010 Map of Rushville

About this map

Rushville and West Rushville anchor the southern landscape of this 2010 survey, separated by the winding course of Little Rush Creek. The area is notably dense with family and denominational burial grounds, serving as a significant record for genealogists. Clusters such as the New Salem Methodist Episcopal Cemetery and the New Salem Methodist Protestant Cemetery near New Salem reflect the deep-rooted religious history of the township. Further north, the landscape transitions toward water management and recreation, centered on Rush Creek Lake and the Memory Lanes Park Lake, which are regulated by the Rush Creek Watershed Structure VI-D Dam. Smaller settlements like Oakthorpe and Bruno are connected by an intricate grid of township roads, including Township Road 15 and Ridenour Rd, highlighting the enduring rural infrastructure of Fairfield County.
