2013 Map of Lewisburg

About this map

Lewisburg and Euphemia sit at the intersection of local industry and agriculture in Preble County, positioned north of the older settlement at New Lexington. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Twin Creek and its many tributaries, including Bantas Fork, Price Creek, and Lowry Run. This hydrology supported early settlement patterns, reflected in the numerous family-named agricultural plots such as Baker Farm, Demotte Farm, and Odiam Farms that dot the countryside. Historic infrastructure is noted at the Warnke Bridge and the Geeting Bridge, crossing the waterways that feed the region's fertile soils. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial grounds across the townships, from the centrally located Roselawn Cem to the outlying Myers Cem and New Lexington Cem. The presence of the Gilmer Airport and the local Po in Lewisburg mark the modern centers of commerce and transport within this long-established farming community.
