About this map

The Auglaize River meanders across this rural Allen County landscape, serving as a central geographic anchor for the settlements of Westminster and Harrod. This 2010 survey reveals a highly organized township grid defined by family-named corridors such as Brentlinger Rd, S Phillips Rd, and Lawrence Rd. The density of small, ancestral burial grounds suggests a deeply rooted agricultural community; researchers can find numerous local sites including Salem Cemetery, Auglaize Cemetery, and Mount Zion Cemetery scattered throughout the farmland.

The village of Harrod is a primary hub here, containing the Harrod Post Office, while smaller clusters like West Newton and Maysville mark the eastern and southern reaches of the map. Waterways like Beaver Dam Branch, Lost Creek, and Muchinippi Creek cut through the sections, often flanked by local landmarks like Hullibarger Cemetery and Smith Cemetery. The map captures the quiet persistence of these small Ohio communities in the early 21st century.
