About this map

The city of Lima serves as the focal point for this 2010 survey of Allen County, Ohio, showcasing a landscape defined by significant water management and academic infrastructure. Large-scale reservoirs, including Ferguson Reservoir and Lost Creek Reservoir, dominate the northeastern sector, while the Auglaize River and Ottawa River trace through the agricultural and suburban transition. The presence of the Ohio State University campus and the Allen County Fairgrounds highlights the region's role as a regional educational and cultural hub during this era.

Local historians and genealogists will find a wealth of smaller settlements and burial sites throughout the area. Smaller communities like South Warsaw, Rousculp, and Yoder are connected by a dense grid of roads, while the legacy of rail transport is marked by the Erie Lackawanna line. Numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Tony Nose Cemetery, Bressler Cemetery, and Stiles Cemetery, provide specific points of interest for researchers tracing local lineage across this corner of northwestern Ohio.
