2013 Map of Scio

About this map

General Custer Monument stands in the small community of New Rumley, the birthplace of the Civil War general. This corner of eastern Ohio is defined by its deep historical roots and a topography of steep ridges and winding valleys such as the Dining Fork. In the village of Scio, the Scio Pottery Pond remains a notable landmark of the area's industrial heritage, while the surrounding hills are dotted with family and church cemeteries, including the United Brethren Cem and Grandview Cem. Further north, the settlement of Kilgore is home to the Kilgore Presbyterian Cem, serving as a vital record for genealogists tracing early families in this rural borderland between Carroll and Harrison Counties. The landscape is interconnected by a network of creeks like McGuire Cr and Conotton Cr, which have shaped the settlement patterns of this Appalachian plateau region for generations.
