2016 Map of Wakefield

About this map

The Scioto River valley defines the eastern edge of this landscape, where the settlements of Wakefield, Coopersville, and Clifford are situated along the river's flat floodplains and primary transportation corridors. Moving west, the terrain rises into the dissected hills of the Appalachian Plateau, characterized by a dense network of hollows such as Starr Hollow, Wheeler Hollow, and Inskeep Hollow. This area is marked by a significant number of small, numbered family cemeteries, including Russell Number 2 Cem, Mount Zion Number 3 Cem, and Howard Number 2 Cem, providing valuable data for genealogists tracing early landholdings. Further south, the community of Crabtree and the Hidden Quarry Airport sit near the border between Pike and Scioto counties, while the northern edge of Lucasville appears at the bottom of the sheet, illustrating the transition from rural uplands to more concentrated valley settlements.
