About this map

Raccoon Creek and its tributary Little Raccoon Creek define the geography of this Gallia County landscape, where small crossroads communities are linked by a dense network of township and county roads. The settlement of Vinton sits near the confluence of Robinson Run, while other hamlets like Bidwell, Porter, and Rio Grande anchor the southern reaches of the quadrangle. For those researching local families, the map is densely populated with burial grounds, including McLeish Cem, Shields Cem, and Evergreen Cem.

Land use is largely rural, dominated by creek valleys like Campaign Cr and Barren Cr. A significant local landmark is Tycoon Lake, which stands as a prominent water feature alongside the Clark Chapel Acres Recreation Pond. From the northern border near Morgan Center to the southern edge at Adamsville, this survey provides a comprehensive look at the distribution of churches and family cemeteries that characterize this portion of southeastern Ohio.
