About this map

Wakatomika Creek and the Little Wakatomika Creek drain the broken landscape of the northern Muskingum Valley, where the border of Coshocton Co and Muskingum Co meets. The village of Trinway sits at a crossroads of valley routes, just north of Dresden. This modern topographic survey shows a countryside defined by high ridges and deep runs, such as Graham Ridge and Irish Ridge, which have long shaped local travel and settlement.

Genealogists and local researchers will find an exceptional density of small rural burial grounds throughout these hills, including the West Carlisle Cem, Broomstick Cem, and the Chalfant Meeting House Cem. These sites, along with landmarks like Indian Knob and The Highlands, provide a clear view of the area's pioneer-era footprint as it persists into the twenty-first century. The rural hamlets of West Carlisle, Wakatomika, and Cooperdale remain focal points in this landscape of winding township roads and creek-side farms.
