2016 Map of Cairo

About this map

Lima's northern outskirts and the agricultural corridor toward Cairo are defined by a network of rural roads and small burial grounds that reflect generations of settlement in Allen County. The landscape follows the drainage of the Ottawa River and its tributaries, including Sugar Cr and Rattlesnake Cr. This 2016 survey captures the area’s transition from the urban density of northern Lima to the smaller hamlets of Slabtown and Rockport. Genealogists will find a significant number of cemeteries recorded, such as the State Hospital Cem and Rockport Presbyterian Cem, alongside older family-named sites like Miller Cem and Berryhill Cem. The presence of the Lima Reservoir and the intersection of W Lincoln Hwy and E Lincoln Hwy highlight the long-standing importance of water management and regional transit in this part of Northwest Ohio.
