About this map

Bowling Green and its southern suburbs define the northern boundary of this Wood County landscape, where neighborhoods like Meadowvale, Westgate Homes, and Wintergarden Heights transition into a grid of productive farmland. The terrain is crisscrossed by several waterways, most notably the North Branch Portage River and Middle Branch Portage River, which weave through a series of small, long-established unincorporated communities and hamlets including Rudolph, Mermill, Digby, and Portage.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in the various rural burial grounds, such as Sargeant Cemetery and Wingston Cemetery, which serve as quiet landmarks among the fields. The map also captures the local economy and infrastructure through features like the Portage Quarry, the Bordner Airport, and the Rudolph Post Office. This survey provides a clear look at the area's late 20th-century road network, which remains anchored by historic routes such as Greensburg Pike and Jerry City Rd.
