USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
Alger and Harrod anchor a landscape defined by industrial drainage and agrarian expansion during the early twentieth century. The arrival of the Erie RR shaped these settlements, facilitating the movement of goods from the surrounding marshlands and farms. Extensive water management is evident through a complex system of artificial waterways like Cottonwood Ditch and Elder Ditch, which were critical for reclaiming the land near the headwaters of the Scioto River.
