About this map

New Washington serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Crawford County, where the transition from traditional farmsteads to modern infrastructure is evident in the New Washington Upground Reservoir. The village is surrounded by a network of small crossroad settlements and family farming operations like Ackerman Farms and Kaple Farms, illustrating the enduring agrarian character of north-central Ohio. A notable density of religious and memorial sites, including Saint Bernard Cem and Our Mother of Sorrows Cem, reflects the heritage of the local community.

Watercourses such as Brokenknife Cr and Honey Cr wind through the township, defining the drainage patterns that shaped early land division. To the southeast, the village of Tiro and the settlement of Mechanicsburg mark historic transit points along the roadways. The map meticulously records the grid of township roads—such as Boundary Rd and Chatfield Center Rd—that continue to anchor the region's rural geography.
