About this map

The West Fork Little Beaver Creek meanders through this portion of Columbiana County, shaping a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and narrow valleys. This 2019 survey documents the rural character of the region, where small settlements like West Point and Williamsport are linked by a network of township and county roads. High points such as Round Knob overlook a terrain punctuated by significant local landmarks, including the Columbiana County Airport and various reservoirs like the Wellsville City-Reservoir and Highlandtown Reservoir.

For those researching family history, the map provides precise locations for several burial grounds, including the Scotch Settlement Cem and West Beaver Cem. The spatial arrangement of these sites, alongside features like Wells Hollow and Patterson Cr, illustrates the long-standing community structure in this part of Ohio. The proximity of water sources, from Lake Cha-Vel to Little Yellow Cr, highlights the geographic factors that have influenced settlement patterns from the earliest homesteads to the modern era.
