About this map

Magnetic Springs and Pharisburg sit at the center of this agricultural landscape in Union County, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of small waterways. The northern half of the map is dominated by the meandering path of Bokes Creek, while the southern reaches are drained by Blues Cr and Mill Creek. This 2016 survey captures the rural character of the region, anchored by the northern extent of Marysville near Woodview Park.

For genealogists and local researchers, the map is particularly useful for identifying family landmarks and small burial sites. Numerous historic cemeteries dot the townships, including Blues Creek Cem, Mount Herman Cem, and Maple Dell Cem. The intricate road system, from Sandusky Rd to Wolford-Maskill Rd, remains largely unchanged from earlier eras, reflecting a stable rural settlement pattern punctuated by features like Twin Lakes and Smith Run.
