2019 Map of Kipton

About this map

Vermilion River and its multiple branches, including the E Fork Vermilion River, define the landscape of this region west of Oberlin. Small settlements and agricultural crossroads like Kipton, Henrietta, and Birmingham are connected by a network of rural routes, including the curiously named Gore Orphanage Rd. The area is notably dense with small burying grounds such as Henrietta Methodist Cem, Andress Cem, and Camden Cem, providing significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families. Transportation and recreation are represented by the Ortner Airport and Firelands Boy Scout Lake, while the Kipton Reservoir serves as a prominent water feature in the southern portion of the map. This modern survey shows the persistence of small-town Ohio geography alongside established landmarks like the Dean Road Bridge.
