1907 Map of Bluffton

About this map

Bluffton and the surrounding agricultural landscapes of Putnam, Allen, Hancock, and Hardin counties are documented here just as the regional rail network reached its peak. The area is defined by a dense grid of drainage systems, including Riley Creek and Hog Creek, which support the productive farmland of the Great Black Swamp region. Industrial infrastructure is visible in landmarks like the Buckeye Pumping Station, signaling the era's energy development alongside established settlements like Ada and Pandora.
