I have a question to you or anyone that reads this - I have an album of my mother's and there are numerous pictures she had labeled Baughman Park. Was that the park that was relocated and was in the vicinity of Park St. & Pleasant St. that has been talked about here and shown on a map recently? My niece in WI has the album right now to copy pictures and we are trying to define locations. Most of the pictures I have do not show any entrances or to much landscape as are friends and family around picnic tables. Any help would be appreciated.Lucylou, As I recall there was a Baughmans Park on 586 (Licking County) just before it crossed Route 40. The park is hilly and stoney and a man had carved large and small statues in those rocks. It used to be open to the public but was closed some time back. Check with Jim Gibson at the Historical Society. I'm sure they had a program on it a few years back that I went to. I believe I might have some pictures from there. Just not sure where to find them.Calc thanks for the tip - it's a starting place and possibly a trip to take a look see!

Really love looking at the old pics. some of the old places I still remember. Where is Zuck?
TY, Do you happen to know about how far out past Millwood.
ZuckButler Twp. Town once located along the Kokosing River near the intersection of Staats and Zuck Roads. The post office operated from 1817 to 1903. On March 25, 1913, the Kokosing River flooded and wiped out much of what remained of Zuck. Today only an old iron bridge over the Kokosing River remains to indicate where the town once stood.
Yea I figured it out. I used to go to Riley Chapel church as a kid. Also used to have some friends that live in the cabin on the hill just the other side of the bridge.My Grandpa used to take us for sunday afternoon rides down in that area after church, mushroom huntin and looking for watercress. He grew up in the New Castle area and he went to school at the old school that is now on display up at the fairgrounds. I remember when it was still in it`s original place.
