About this map

The Auglaize River dominates this Paulding and Defiance County landscape, cutting a deep valley where numerous tributaries converge. The village of Junction sits at a strategic point above the confluence of Sixmile Cr and Little Flatrock Cr, its history etched in the nearby Saint Marys Cem and Junction Cem. Further south, the settlement of Charloe anchors the riverbank near Charloe Airport and Sherman Cem.

The area is notably dense with small family or community burial grounds, including Dotterer Cem, Blakeslee Cem, and Klein Cem, suggesting a long-established rural population. Aviation is represented by both the Strable Landing Strip to the west and the local airport at Charloe. The drainage pattern is complex, with named runs like Beetree Run, Beaver Run, and Eagle Cr feeding the primary river system, illustrating the hydrology of this Northwest Ohio region.
