About this map

The Portage River winds through Northwest Ohio, connecting the established communities of Woodville, Elmore, and Gibsonburg at the start of the 21st century. This agricultural landscape is characterized by a dense network of country roads and numerous small watercourses like Sugar Creek, Wolf Creek, and Toussaint Creek. The map provides significant genealogical value, documenting several burial grounds including Saint Lawrence Cemetery, West Union Cemetery, and the Veterans Memorial Cemetery near Elmore.

Industry and transport are represented by local facilities such as Haar Airport and the Gibsonburg Post Office, while the inclusion of Busy Corners highlights smaller rural crossroads. This survey captures a moment of modern land use where recreational spaces like the Sugar Creek Golf Course and the natural basin of Aldrich Pond coexist with the region’s traditional farming and township structure.
