2019 Map of Dorset

About this map

Jefferson and the smaller settlements of Dorset, Rowenton, and Sentinel define this agricultural landscape in eastern Ohio. The terrain is deeply tied to its water systems, including the southward-flowing Mill Creek and the meandering Askue Run. A network of township and county roads, such as Footville-Richmond Rd and S Denmark Rd, connect local homesteads and family cemeteries. Genealogy researchers can find markers like Williams Cem, South Denmark Cem, and Dorset Cem scattered throughout the rural acreage. The presence of Allen Airport and the South Denmark Road Bridge reflects the modern infrastructure supporting this long-established farming community. Large sections of wetlands are visible along the creek bottoms, particularly around Peters Cr, illustrating the natural drainage patterns that have shaped land use in Ashtabula County for generations.
