About this map

Springfield anchors the southwestern portion of this landscape, where the urban edge gives way to the agricultural expanse of Clark County. The northeastern reaches of the city are defined by the Clarence J Brown Reservoir, a major water body fed by Buck Creek. This area illustrates a typical Midwestern transition from city streets to rural townships, with the village of New Moorefield situated just north of the reservoir and Harmony located further east along the highway corridor.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial grounds across the townships, including Fletcher Chapel Cem, Asbury Chapel Cem, and Vernon Cem. The topography is marked by The Knobs in the northeast, while small aviation history is noted at Kepes Flying Field. Waterways such as Beaver Creek and the N Fork Little Miami River weave through the southern sections, highlighting the drainage patterns that shaped the early settlement of Thorps.
