1910 Map of Zanesville

About this map

Zanesville stands as the industrial and transportation hub of Muskingum County in this early twentieth-century survey, where the Licking River joins the Muskingum River. The city’s dense street grid gives way to a complex network of railroads, including the Zanesville and Western Ry and the Cincinnati and Muskingum Valley RR, which follow the river valleys and serve the clay-rich industrial corridor to the south. Along the southern rail lines, the settlements of Roseville and Crooksville highlight the region's importance in stoneware and pottery manufacturing.
