About this map

Big Darby Creek meanders along the eastern edge of this landscape, marking the boundary between Madison and Franklin counties near the settlement of Amity. The town of Plain City serves as the primary hub, where the intersection of N Chillicothe St and W Bigelow Ave anchors a community defined by its proximity to fertile farmland. This 2023 survey illustrates an intricate drainage network engineered for agriculture, featuring named channels such as Worthington Ditch, Eli Jones Ditch, and Yutzy Ditch that lace the territory between Amish Pike and Price-Hilliards Rd.

For local historians and genealogists, the map is a dense record of early burial sites. A notable concentration of cemeteries, including Darby Township Cem, Forest Grove Cem, and United Bethel Cem, are located on the outskirts of Plain City. Further south, smaller family and community plots such as Converse-Huff Cem and Finch Cem are preserved among the fields, providing clear spatial context for ancestral research in this part of Madison County.
