About this map

Monroeville sits at the western edge of this landscape, where the street grid of Main St and Summit St meets a web of rural drainage ditches and creeks. This 2019 survey captures the highly structured agricultural environment along the Indiana-Ohio state line, a border defined by State Line Rd. The terrain is characterized by a sophisticated network of water management, including Scott Ditch, White Ditch, and Brown Ditch, which channel water toward natural runs like Flatrock Cr.

Genealogists will find a wealth of dispersed burial sites, from the Monroeville Memorial Cem to smaller family and church yards such as Kings Cem, McNeal Cem, and Clark Chapel Cem. Small named clusters like East Liberty and Wolfcale persist amidst the section lines, while the community of Dixon straddles the state boundary, marking a distinct point of historical crossing between Allen and Van Wert counties.
