2023 Map of East Springfield

About this map

Lake Erie shoreline and the low-lying glacial plains of western Erie County define this portrait of the Springfield area. The map illustrates a distinctive settlement pattern concentrated along the historic ridge roads, particularly W Ridge Rd and Main St, which serve as the primary east-west arteries for West Springfield, East Springfield, and North Springfield. The landscape is intricately carved by several major waterways flowing north toward the lake, including the winding paths of Raccoon Creek, Crooked Creek, and the larger Conneaut Creek in the south. Genealogists will find a cluster of burial grounds across the townships, from the Springfield Cem near the town centers to the smaller Griffey Cem and Salsbury Cem further south. The southern portion of the sheet reveals a transition into more rolling terrain near Albion, where Marsh Run feeds into the local drainage system near the Valley Cem.
