About this map

Washington Court House serves as the focal point of this Fayette County survey, where the historic Fayette County Courthouse anchors the central grid. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several waterways, including Paint Creek and the East Fork Paint Creek, which weave around the primary settlements. To the north, the village of Bloomingburg is clearly delineated alongside its namesake Bloomingburg Cem, while the smaller communities of Eber and Jonesboro appear as important local junctions.

Local history and genealogy are well-represented through numerous burial sites, from the centrally located Washington Cem and Saint Colmans Cem to the outlying Sugar Creek Cem. The transition from the urban density of the county seat to the surrounding agricultural fields is marked by a network of rural roads like Old Palmer Rd and Hoppes Rd, illustrating the modern layout of this long-established Ohio farming region.
