About this map

New Rumley stands as a focal point in the southern portion of this Harrison County landscape, distinguished as the birthplace of George Armstrong Custer and marked by the General Custer Monument. The village is a cluster of local heritage, featuring the New Rumley Methodist Cem, United Brethren Cem, and Evangelical Lutheran Cem in close proximity. To the northwest, the town of Scio sits along the Conotton Cr near the Scio-Pottery Pond, illustrating the regional pattern of valley-bottom settlements connected by winding township roads.

The terrain is defined by the sharp divide between the Carroll Co and Harrison Co lines, where ridges separate drainage basins like the Dining Fork and McGuire Cr. Smaller settlements such as Perrysville and Kilgore anchor the northern reaches, each maintaining their own local landmarks like the Perrysville Cem and Kilgore Presbyterian Cem. This network of rural cemeteries and family-named landmarks provides a detailed record of the community's established footprint across the dissected plateau.
