About this map

The agricultural landscape of western Montgomery County and eastern Preble County centers on the village of Farmersville, situated at the intersection of rural roads and the Penn Central rail line. This 1960s survey, updated with 1970s aerial data, reveals a community anchored by local landmarks such as the Township Sch and several country churches, including St Johns Ch and Slifers Ch. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Twin Creek and Little Twin Creek, which carve through the southern portion of the quadrangle.

Preservation and history are evident in the Miami Conservancy District (Germantown Reserve), which protects the floodplain south of Farmersville. Notable local heritage sites include an Indian Mound near the creek and several small burial grounds like Help Cem and Dutch Cem. To the north, the expansion of New Lebanon and the presence of a local Airstrip indicate the mid-century shift toward suburban development and increased infrastructure.
