2013 Map of Hilliard

About this map

Hilliard and Dublin anchor this western Franklin County landscape, showing the suburban expansion of Columbus in the early 21st century. While residential developments and modern roadway networks like Oh-161 dominate the eastern half, the western edges near the Union and Madison County lines retain traces of an older rural character. Scattered family and community landmarks such as Smith-Calhoun Road Cem, Rings Cem, and the historic Saint John Cem provide essential anchor points for genealogists. The map also documents smaller unincorporated settlements and crossroads like Kileville, Amlin, and Mudsock that have persisted amidst the growing urban footprint. Drainage and irrigation remain central to the geography here, with an intricate system of agricultural waterways including Cramer Ditch, Ballenger Ditch, and Gordon Tri-County Ditch defining the local hydrology.
