About this map

The Maumee River corridor south of Toledo Welfare Farm reveals a complex 1930s landscape of hydraulic engineering and river-based industry. Near the settlement of Grand Rapids, the presence of the Lucas Wood Co Canal (Abandoned) and a Filled Mill suggests a shift away from earlier water-powered milling toward more modern infrastructure, like the Edison Co Transmission Line. The river is dotted with numerous islands, including Missionary Island and Indian Island, while the Ottawa Twelvemile Reservation reflects the layered history of land use in Wood County.
