About this map

Middletown and the smaller community of Buell anchor this rural Montgomery County landscape, where the agricultural grid is defined by a dense network of secondary routes like Swope School Rd and Hopewell Church Rd. The terrain is characterized by the branching drainages of Elkhorn Creek, Coon Creek, and Crooked Creek, which feed into local catchments such as Middletown Lake.

Genealogists can trace several historical community focal points, including the Postoak School and Hazel Dell School, alongside established burial grounds like McQuoid Cemetery and Hopewell Cemetery. The presence of the Wehrman Landing Strip south of Buell indicates the continued utility of flat upland areas for private aviation in this farming region. The map preserves many family-named transit paths, including Jaks Rd and Kleinsorge Rd, which remain central to the area's local history and development.
