About this map

Sugar Creek and its various tributaries, including Rattlesnake Creek and Sycamore Creek, define the landscape of this Allen County region. The village of Cairo serves as a central hub, flanked by West Cairo and the nearby Cairo Post Office. This area is characterized by an exceptionally high density of historic burial sites, suggesting a deeply rooted local genealogy. These range from family-named plots like Miller Cemetery and Altstaetter Cemetery to the more specialized State Hospital Cemetery located further south.

Industrial and recreational developments are also evident, notably the Lima Upground Reservoir Dam and the Lima Reservoir which manage the local water supply near the Ottawa River. Local leisure is represented by the Springbrook Golf Course and Hawthorne Hills Golf Course, while small settlements such as Rockport and Slabtown maintain their distinct identities amidst the grid of rural roads like E Lincoln Hwy and N Dixie Hwy.
