About this map

The village of Hoytville stands as a central point in this 2013 landscape, where the agricultural grid of Wood and Hancock counties is defined by a dense network of township roads and drainage waterways. Small settlements and rural waypoints such as Deweyville and Hancock are connected by historical thoroughfares like Otsego Pike and Reigle Rd. The terrain is shaped by the slow movement of the N Br Portage River and its various tributaries, including Needles Cr and Yellow Cr, which cut through the fertile farmland.

Local history is preserved in landmarks such as Jackson Township Cem and Thomas Cem, while industrial and aviation footprints are noted at Butlers Mill and the Deshler Municipal Landing Strip. The map illustrates the persistent structure of the Public Land Survey System, with numbered sections clearly marked across the county line. This document captures the enduring rural character of Northwest Ohio, providing an essential resource for those researching family property or the evolving drainage patterns of this former Great Black Swamp region.
