Among the communities of Ohio, Jacksontown stands out for its place along the historic National Road. Now followed here by U.S. Route 40, this early cross-country route connects the settlement with a defining chapter in American transportation history. The South Fork Licking River winds through the surrounding Licking County countryside, while The Dawes Arboretum nearby preserves extensive tree collections and gardens; it was founded in 1929 by Beman Dawes. Jacksontown is a small community rather than an urban destination, but its roads lead toward Newark and central Ohio.
