Cultural Resources Literature Review and Phase I Archaeological
Survey
Tamsin Ridge Solar and Storage Project, Harrison Township, Carroll County, Ohio
Prepared for Northfold Energy Partners, LLC. Report CAS-2023-19. June 30, 2023.
Abstract
Cinderhill Archaeological Services reviewed the Ohio Archaeological Inventory and other records held by the
Ohio History Connection (Ohio's SHPO) for a one-mile radius, and carried out a Phase I archaeological survey
of the proposed fenced areas, access roads and collection routes with a 100-foot margin: 820 acres in all.
The literature review found four previously recorded archaeological sites within one mile, none in the survey
area, and the Pettibone Family Cemetery, a small family burial ground adjoining Parcel 9.
The survey recorded four new archaeological sites. Site 33-CR-0412, a prehistoric lithic scatter with an intact pit
feature below the plow zone on a terrace above Sallow Creek, Quote starts. may hold significant information and should be
avoided or evaluated by Phase II testing. Quote ends. Sites 33-CR-0413 and 33-CR-0415 are isolated prehistoric finds, and
33-CR-0414 is a disturbed farmstead artifact scatter of the 1800s; none of the three needs further work.
The Pettibone Family Cemetery has six marked graves dated 1841 to 1886 on a 0.2-acre tract. Unmarked
graves may extend beyond its fence. Cinderhill recommends a 100-foot buffer, shown on plans and fenced
during construction, and a ground-penetrating radar survey of the buffer.
Scope
This report addresses archaeological resources and cemeteries only. Above-ground resources, such as
standing buildings and structures, were outside its scope and will be addressed in a separate study
commissioned by the developer.
Setting
The survey area lies on the dissected Allegheny Plateau. Soils on the Sallow Creek terraces are deep silt loams
favorable for prehistoric occupation; the uplands are thin soils over shale and sandstone, and part of the East
Block was disturbed by surface mining and reclamation, which leaves low potential for intact sites there.
