2019 Map of Wakefield

About this map

The Scioto River valley serves as a primary corridor through this portion of Ohio, where the settlements of Wakefield and Coopersville are positioned along the river's western banks. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of ridges and hollows, such as McChesney Ridge and Wildcat Hollow, which historically influenced the placement of mountain roads and family homesteads. This 2019 survey documents a landscape dotted with numerous numbered cemeteries, including Mount Zion Number 3 Cem and Howard Number 2 Cem, providing valuable data for genealogists tracing ancestral lines in the rural townships. Further west, the map identifies small locales like Sedan and Crabtree, the latter situated near the Hidden Quarry Airport. The boundary between Pike Co and Scioto Co bisects the area, illustrating how political lines cut across the winding courses of Rocky Fork and Bear Cr.
