About this map

The village of Summerfield serves as the central hub of this eastern Ohio landscape, situated where the Noble and Monroe County line divides the hills. The terrain is defined by a dense network of ridges and narrow valleys, drained by waterways such as Seneca Fork Wills Creek and the Clear Fork Little Muskingum River. This topography historically dictated the winding path of roads like Woodsfield Rd and Batesville Rd, which connect small outlying settlements including Calais, Whigville, and Burkhart.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites throughout the townships, from the Bethesda Cem in the north to the Swazey Methodist Cem in the south. The southeastern portion of the map is dominated by the Wayne National Forest, showing the land's transition back to timber. Notable landmarks like Ranker Knob and Lexington Ridge provide distinct elevation points above the many runs and forks that carve through the countryside.
