2016 Map of Vinton

About this map

Raccoon Creek and its many tributaries, including Robinson Run and Campaign Cr, wind through this Gallia County landscape, shaping the locations of early Ohio settlements like Vinton and Bidwell. The map reveals a dense network of family-named cemeteries and rural landmarks that speak to generations of local residency, from the Vinton Memorial Cem in the north to the Evergreen Cem near the southern boundary. The topography is defined by significant water bodies like Tycoon Lake and the Clark Chapel Acres Recreation Pond, which contrast with the scattered residential clusters at Harrisburg, Porter, and Adamsville. This survey provides a clear view of the area's rural character, where small communities like Morgan Center and Glen Summitt are connected by a web of township and county roads, such as Woods Mill Rd and Keaton Rd, that follow the natural contours of the stream valleys.
