About this map

Little Sandusky and Morral serve as the primary anchors of this agricultural landscape in north-central Ohio, situated along the county line where Wyandot Co meets Marion Co. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the Sandusky River in the northwest and the Little Scioto River winding through the southeast. These watercourses, along with smaller tributaries like Honey Run and Prairie Run, dictate the placement of early rural infrastructure and land boundaries.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites scattered throughout the townships, such as the Little Sandusky Cem, Grand Prairie Cem, and the uniquely named Fitzhugh Grave. The map also documents the transition from small rural communities like Brush Ridge and Harpster to more modern developments like Chapel Heights Memorial Gardens. Transportation is dominated by the diagonal corridor of the Marion Upper Sandusky Rd, which links the larger regional hubs just beyond the quadrangle's borders.
