About this map

Buckeye Lake and its intricate system of islands and inlets dominate this part of Licking County, showing the extensive recreational and residential developments at Fairfield Beach and Harbor Hills. To the north, the Dawes Arboretum stands as a significant managed landscape, featuring the Dawes Arboretum Pond and the Dawes Cemetery. The map documents a cluster of small settlements including Hebron, Jacksontown, and Thornville, which serve as local hubs connected by a dense grid of rural routes such as Licking Trails Rd and Cristland Hill Rd.

Genealogists will find numerous family and community burial grounds, from the Friendship Cemetery in the north to the Kemper Family Cemetery near the southern edge. The landscape is also defined by its drainage into the South Fork Licking River and Jonathan Creek. The presence of Clum Airport and various post offices indicates the continued role of these small towns as vital regional centers during this period.
