About this map

The Maumee River serves as the central artery and county boundary on this 2016 survey, carving a path between Lucas Co and Wood Co. The river landscape is notably dense with islands, including Number 3 Island, Sheets Island, and Indian Island, while the Towpath Trail traces the northern bank, reflecting the corridor's long-standing transportation significance. To the north, the settlement of Neapolis is positioned near the N Country National Scenic Trail and the headwaters of Blue Cr.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds distributed across the rural township lines, such as Saint Patrick Cem near the river and Beaver Creek Cem to the south. The map details the transition from the structured street grid of Grand Rapids in the southwest to the wooded river bluffs near Otsego and Waterville. Tributaries like Beaver Creek and W Br Tontogany Cr drain the surrounding agricultural lands, punctuated by local landmarks like Williamsburg Lake.
