About this map

Clearport and the surrounding township appear as a network of rural homesteads and family cemeteries in this 2010 survey. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Clear Creek, which is crossed by notable structures such as the Hanaway Bridge and Johnson Bridge. Settlement is concentrated around small crossroads and named landmarks like the evocative Revenge and the prominence of Emmanuel Knob.

Genealogists and local researchers will find a dense concentration of burial grounds, including the Morgan Chapel Cemetery, Zion Cemetery, and the McClelland Cemetery, tracing the early family lineage of the region. The map also documents the recreation and water management of the era, from Camp Indianola to the reservoirs at Lake Romona and Benua Lake. The intricate system of rural routes, such as Mink Hollow Rd SW and Snortin Ridge Rd SW, highlights the persistent agricultural and residential patterns of this part of Ohio.
