2013 Map of Bascom

About this map

Kansas and Bascom anchor this topographic survey of Seneca County, which documents a landscape defined by an extensive network of drainage ditches and creeks. This agricultural region is meticulously divided by a grid of township and county roads, reflecting the legacy of the Public Land Survey System as shown by the prominent section boundaries of T3N and T2N. Small rural crossroads like Amsden, Iler, and Angus appear alongside several established burial grounds including Zion Lutheran Cem and Saint Andrews Cem, which serve as vital markers for local family history research. The eastern edge of Fostoria enters the frame in the west, while the hydrological pattern of the area is illustrated by numerous watercourses such as Wolf Cr, Muskellunge Cr, and Sherger Ditch, which manage the runoff across this level Ohio terrain.
