About this map

Mohicanville and the rugged hills of north-central Ohio dominate this 1912 survey, revealing a landscape defined by sharp glacial topography and early 20th-century rural infrastructure. The map follows the winding courses of the Mohican River, Black Fork, and Clear Fork, which carve deep valleys through the region. A significant historical boundary, the Greenville Treaty Line, cuts across the lower half of the sheet, marking a legacy of frontier expansion.

Rail transport centers on the Pennsylvania System, which connects the larger settlements of Loudonville, Shreve, and Lakeville. Rural education is exceptionally well-documented here, with dozens of local institutions such as Germany School, Blue Ridge School, and Bull Alley School serving scattered farming communities. Near the northern boundary, the Mohicanville Reservoir and numerous kettle lakes like Odell Lake and Round Lake highlight the area's complex hydrology and natural drainage patterns.
