2010 Map of Blooming Valley

About this map

Blooming Valley and the surrounding rural landscape of Crawford County are defined by the winding waters of Woodcock Creek and the significant basin of Woodcock Creek Lake. This 2010 survey illustrates a region where agricultural traditions persist alongside modern infrastructure, as seen at the Woodcock Creek Dam and the small Gravel Run Airport. Historically significant nodes such as Fountain House Corners, Pinney Corners, and Delamater Corners mark the intersections of old county roads, suggesting the early settlement patterns of the area. Local genealogy is well-represented through the presence of several established burial grounds, including Mount Blair Cemetery, Townley Cemetery, and Blooming Valley Cemetery. In the south, the village of Wayland sits near the headwaters of Little Sugar Creek, while the northwestern corner is touched by the course of French Creek, anchoring the map in a well-watered valley system.
