2013 Map of Fairhaven

About this map

The state line between Indiana and Ohio splits this landscape, where agricultural tradition meets the rural crossroads of Wayne, Union, and Preble counties. Several small settlements and farmsteads define the area, including Boston, Kitchel, and the community of Fairhaven. The drainage patterns of Four Mile Creek and Little Four Mile Cr dictate the layout of the local road network, which connects historical points like Five Points and Goodwins Corner. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local burial sites, such as Concord Cem, Railsback Cem, and Pentecost Cem. The map also preserves the locations of numerous family-named agricultural holdings, including Twin Acre Farms, Elleman Farms, and Smith Farms, illustrating the enduring nature of land ownership in this border region. Transport history is noted through points like Witts Station and the landmark Harshman Bridge spanning the local waterways.
