About this map

Elkton serves as the central hub for this portion of Huron County, situated at the intersection of Pigeon Rd and S Main St. The landscape is defined by the agricultural grid of Oliver Township, where the headwaters and branches of the Pinnebog River and Pigeon River weave through the sections. These waterways dictated the early settlement patterns of the region long before the modern road network was established.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the location of Riverside Cem just south of the main village, as well as Grant Cem further south along S Elkton Rd. The map detail captures the dense network of rural corridors, including Kilmanagh Rd and Geiger Rd, which connect the scattered farmsteads and rural homesteads to the village core. This 2014 survey documents the enduring layout of this Thumb-region community.
