About this map

The Maumee River defines the central geography of this Henry County landscape, flowing through the village of Texas toward Grand Rapids at the eastern margin. This river valley is flanked by numerous tributaries, including South Turkeyfoot Creek and Lick Cr, which carve through a primarily agricultural region defined by a rigid section-line road grid.

Settlement patterns are anchored by the villages of Colton and Mcclure, the latter situated near the southern boundary. For genealogists, the map identifies several distinct burial grounds that preserve local family names, such as Heath-Colton Cem and Mohler-Union Cem. The N Country National Scenic Trail winds diagonally across the northern townships, providing a modern recreational layer over the established rural infrastructure of Fulton and Henry counties.
