About this map

Polk stands as the central hub of this northern Ohio landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the drainage systems of Redhaw Creek and Katotawa Creek. The area is notably dense with family and community burial grounds, preserving names like Hopewell Cem, King Cem, and Chilcote Cem across the township lines. To the north, the modern residential development around Cinnamon Lake introduces a concentrated network of streets with botanical and spirits-inspired names such as Ginko Dr and Sangria Dr.

Transitioning toward Redhaw in the southeast, the terrain is shaped by the winding path of the Muddy Fork and the Evangelical Church Graveyard. This survey details the intersection of rural township roads and county highways that have defined Ashland County's movement for generations, from Starkey Pond to the many small cemeteries like Swope Cem and Rickle Cem that mark the former sites of early pioneer settlements.
