2016 Map of Montezuma

About this map

Montezuma Bay and the southern reaches of Grand Lake anchor this agricultural landscape in Mercer County, where the grid of rural roads connects several tight-knit communities. The area is defined by a high density of religious and commemorative sites, particularly Roman Catholic landmarks such as Saint Aloysious Catholic Cem, Saint Sebastian Catholic Cem, and Saint Rose Catholic Cem. These sites, along with the settlements of Carthagena, Cassella, and Saint Rosa, reflect the deep heritage of the Land of the Cross-Tipped Churches region. The terrain is drained by a network of waterways including Beaver Cr and Prairie Cr, while Lakefield Airport provides a modern navigational point near the village of Montezuma. Further south, the map reaches the Wabash River and the rural crossroads of Cranberry Prairie, illustrating the persistent agrarian character of western Ohio.
