About this map

Leading Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Leading Cr and Dexter Run, shape the topography of this Meigs County landscape. Small communities and named crossroads such as Langsville, Rutland, and Dexter serve as local anchors, connected by a network of winding roads like Carpenter Hill Rd and Nicholson Hill RD. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named landmarks and cemeteries, including the Pearsol Cem and Miles Cem, which reflect the generations of residents who settled these valleys and ridges.

Industrial influence is evident in the presence of the Meigs Mine Number One Water Supply Reservoir, a significant man-made feature north of Parker Run. The map also details the boundary line between Meigs Co and Gallia Co in the south, where the drainage of Bell Lick Run and Kiger Cr begins. This survey captures a modern view of a rural Ohio region defined by its narrow creek bottoms and prominent elevations like Whites Hill.
