2015 Map of Ladoga

About this map

Ladoga sits in the northern reaches of this Taylor County landscape, defined by the winding tributaries of the One Hundred and Two River system. The drainage patterns of the Middle Fork One Hundred and Two River and the West Fork One Hundred and Two River create a rhythmic north-south grain across the terrain, shaping the placement of rural roads and farmsteads. Cultural markers of the area's long-term settlement are visible at Graceland Cem and Ferrell-Ross Cem, which serve as significant sites for local genealogical research. Small water bodies like Windmill Lake and seasonal drainages such as Brushy Cr and Dougherty Cr punctuate the agricultural sections, illustrating the water-dependent nature of the region's land use and township organization during this mid-2010s era.
