2023 Map of Ashland North

About this map

Savannah and Nankin anchor this northern Ohio landscape, where the headwaters of the Vermilion River and the Jerome Fork define the drainage of the agricultural countryside. A dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Gregg Cem, Krebs Cem, and Beeghley Cem, provides a detailed geographic record for genealogical research across the townships. The area is characterized by numerous small lakes and reservoirs, including Bailey Lake, Slyman Lake, and the Ashland Reservoir, which support the local water table and regional recreation. Infrastructure like the Ashland County Airport near the southern edge of the map shows the modern development of the outskirts of Ashland, while features like Leidigh Mill Creek hint at the historical water-powered industry that once shaped these rural valleys.
