About this map

The Mohican River valley serves as the central corridor for this 2023 survey, capturing the convergence of the Black Fork Mohican River and Lake Fork Mohican River near the small community of Greer. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape shaped by both water and elevation, notably along the prominent Kaylor Ridge. Historically significant sites for genealogists include several hillside burial grounds such as Kaylor Ridge Cem, Ullman Cem, and Wolf Cem, which are scattered throughout the winding township road network.

Agricultural and residential patterns are concentrated in the flatter river bottoms and along the ridges, particularly around the settlements of Spellacy and the outskirts of Loudonville. The map clearly delineates the complex county lines where Ashland Co, Holmes Co, and Knox Co meet. The persistence of small family cemeteries and isolated rural runs, such as Sassafras Run and Ball Alley Run, provides a high-resolution look at the current state of these long-established rural Ohio townships.
