2019 Map of Fletcher

About this map

Fletcher and its neighboring hamlets sit at the intersection of several county lines in this agricultural corridor of western Ohio. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Leatherwood Cr and W Br Lost Cr, which cut through the gridded network of township roads. This 2019 survey documents a high density of small family and community burial grounds, such as Pioneer Cem, Anderson Cem, and the Fletcher Presbyterian Churchyard Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in Miami, Shelby, and Champaign Counties. The settlement pattern remains centered around historic crossroads like Plattsville, Ballou, and Conover, where traditional rural infrastructure meets the modern thoroughfare of US Rte 36. These small hubs, often separated by only a few miles of farmland, reflect the early 19th-century land division and the enduring importance of local drainage systems like Gustin Ditch to the region's productivity.
