2013 Map of McComb

About this map

McComb and Benton Ridge anchor this Northwest Ohio landscape, where the flat agricultural terrain is defined by a rigorous grid of township roads and the meandering path of the Blanchard River. Small family and community burial sites, such as the Horn Family Cem and Knepper Cem, are scattered throughout the sections, offering significant data points for genealogical research in Hancock County. The northern portion of the map features substantial water management infrastructure, including McComb Upground Reservoir Number One and its counterpart, Number Two, situated near the Shady Acres Golf Course. Natural drainage like Pickens Run and Ottawa Cr contrasts with man-made improvements like Moffitt Ditch, illustrating how the local geography has been adapted for regional farming. The settlement of Shawtown sits at a crossroads in the northwest, further detailing the historical settlement pattern of this rural corridor.
