2002 Map of Sherritts

USGS Topo · Published 2006

About this map

Wayne National Forest and Dean State Forest dominate this Lawrence County landscape, where the rugged ridge-and-hollow topography is carved by a dense network of watercourses including Symmes Creek, Johns Creek, and Aaron Creek. The map documents a rural Ohio terrain defined by its timber and mineral extraction history, noted by several strip mines and gas wells scattered among the peaks. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific local landmarks, from the Indian Mound near Yates Cem to numerous family-named burial grounds like Littles Cem and Aldridge Cem. The era's community life is anchored by small rural congregations such as Macedonia Ch and Zoar Ch. Small settlements like Sherritts and Cannons appear alongside recreational landmarks like Lake Vesuvius and Izaak Walton Lake, providing a clear look at how land use for both industry and public conservation coexisted at the start of the 21st century.
