2013 Map of South Webster

About this map

The community of South Webster sits at the heart of this landscape, where the ridges of the Wayne National Forest are dissected by a complex network of hollows including Dutch Hollow, Sugar Camp Hollow, and Railroad Hollow. The area’s industrial and settlement history is marked by small crossroads such as Bloom Junction, Eifort, and Firebrick, reflecting a legacy of resource extraction and furnace operations found at Olive Furnace. Genealogists will find a significant density of family and community burial sites, including the South Webster Cem, Bloom Township Cem, and the more remote Jackson Furnace Cem. This 2013 survey provides a detailed look at the modern road network, including State Route 140, while preserving the locations of historical landmarks like the Simmering Lookout Tower and various church and cemetery sites that define the local heritage of Scioto and Lawrence counties.
