About this map

The Great Miami River corridor anchors this landscape between Sidney and Piqua, where modern infrastructure meets generations of settlement. This area is notable for its concentration of early burial grounds, including the Beechwood Cem and Old Reformed Cem, providing a direct link to the region's pioneering families. The industrial and agricultural heritage of the valley is evident in landmarks like the Loramie Mill near Johnston Prairie, while the transition to modern education and aviation is marked by the Edison State Community Coll and the Apple Airport.

Smaller unincorporated communities and neighborhoods such as Rossville, Cedar Bluff, and Whitackers Court appear alongside expansive agricultural holdings like Dershem Farms and Hill Farms. The terrain is defined by the drainage of Lorainie Creek and Rush Cr, which converge toward the river system that has long dictated the layout of transportation routes and local commerce in Miami and Shelby Counties.
