1958 Map of Bowling Green North

About this map

Maumee River waters flow past Missionary Island and Granger Island in the northwestern corner of this Wood County landscape, where the landmark Roche de Boeuf stands as a prominent feature along the bank. To the south, the city of Bowling Green shows significant growth, dominated by the campus of Bowling Green State University and civic hubs like the County Fairgrounds and City Park. The area between these centers is a grid of agricultural and transport history, crisscrossed by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and the Norfolk and Western lines. Smaller settlements like Haskins and Tontogany serve as local anchors, while scattered rural markers such as Plain Ch and the Union Hill Cem provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research in Washington and Center townships.
