2019 Map of Forest

About this map

The Blanchard River and its various tributaries, including Buck Run and The Outlet, dominate the topography of this rural landscape where Hancock, Hardin, and Wyandot Counties converge. The village of Forest serves as the primary population center, showing a grid of residential streets such as W Dixon St and Sandusky St centered around its commercial core and local Po. To the south, the smaller settlement of Patterson and the site of McVitty reflect the agricultural and rail-oriented development typical of this region of Ohio. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites distributed across the townships, including Earlywine Cem, Adams Cem, and Price Cem. The infrastructure is defined by a dense network of township and county roads, such as Co Rd 2 and Twp Rd 50, which connect these dispersed farmsteads and rural cemeteries.
