About this map

Kenton serves as the focal point of this Hardin County survey, situated where the Scioto River and Blanchard River drainage basins nearly converge. The town's grid is well-defined, featuring thoroughfares like E Columbus St and Lima St, while the surrounding rural landscape is marked by a systematic township and range layout. To the north, the small settlements of Grant and Bridgeport are connected by a network of county roads such as Co Rd 80 and Co Rd 90, illustrating the persistent agricultural character of the region.

Genealogists will find notable burial sites preserved here, including Saint Marys Cem and Grove Cem near the city center, and the more isolated Grant Cem to the north. The hydrology of the area is particularly complex, with several tributaries like Little Tymochtee Cr and Reevhorn Run winding through the farmland. The presence of Lake Idlewild and several small runs like Golden Run underscore the importance of water management in this flat, fertile corner of Ohio.
