About this map

Fort Jefferson and the surrounding agricultural landscape of western Darke County are meticulously documented in this contemporary survey. The map details the transition from the city of Greenville toward the Indiana border, passing through small hamlets like Palestine and Sharpeye. A notable concentration of family and community burial grounds, including the Sharpeye Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and Oak Grove Cem, provides significant data for genealogical research.

Water management and historical geography are visible through the course of Greenville Creek, the Lake Br Ditch, and the unique layout of Wayne Lakes Park, which sits south of the historic Tecumsehs Point. The presence of the Darke County Fairgrounds on the edge of the county seat highlights the area's long-standing connection to regional agriculture and commerce, while rural landmarks such as Welmers Mill further define the local character of the township lines.
