2013 Map of Midway

About this map

The boundary between Madison and Fayette counties anchors this agricultural landscape, where family-named cemeteries and rural settlements trace the lineage of local settlement. Several small communities, including Midway, Bethel, and Yatesville, are connected by a network of state roads like Oh-38 and Oh-323. The area is defined by its drainage patterns, featuring engineered waterways such as the William Cathcart Ditch and Valley Ditch, alongside natural flows like East Fork Paint Creek. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites across the township, from the centrally located Range Cem to the Union Chapel Cem and Vesey Cem. This 2013 survey illustrates a persistent agrarian character, noted by the presence of modern operations like Stardust Dairy and Bock Farms amidst a historic grid of country roads and creeks.
