About this map

Osgood and Fort Loramie anchor this section of Western Ohio, where the intersections of Mercer, Darke, Shelby, and Auglaize counties meet in a landscape defined by systematic agricultural blocks and winding creek beds. The village of Osgood is situated along Oh-705, serving as a central point for the surrounding farming community. To the east, Fort Loramie sits along the banks of Loramie Creek, a waterway that feeds into Barhorst Lake.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and rural burial grounds, such as Saint Michael Cem, Mendenhall Cem, and Willowdell Cem. The area’s agrarian heritage is further evidenced by named operations like Tuente Farms and Schafer Dairy Farms. A network of drainage and local tributaries, including Mile Creek, Spring Creek, and Swamp Creek, dictates the topography between the small settlements of Willowdell and Yorkshire.
