About this map

The Licking River winds through this portion of Morgan County, shaping the landscape near the county seat of West Liberty. The area is characterized by numerous family-named landmarks and cemeteries, such as Bishop Cemetery and Wheeler Cemetery, which offer valuable data points for genealogical research. Small named settlements like Zag, Fannin, and Twentysix are connected by a network of rural roads including Liberty Road and the Tabernacle Crossover Rd.

Transport and recreation are evident at the Twentysix Boat Ramp and the West Liberty Airport, while the interior remains deeply rural with features like Bear Wallow and the Giant Canada Goose Pond. The map also preserves the location of the Henry Post Office, marking a local center of communication and commerce in the Henry community. This survey provides a clear view of the land before significant modern development, emphasizing the relationship between the river valleys and the upland ridges.
