2016 Map of Saint Paris

About this map

St. Paris anchors the southern edge of this West Central Ohio landscape, where the village street grid meets the agricultural reaches of Champaign County. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Nettle Creek and the significant basin of Kiser Lake, which features the uniquely named Groundhog Island. Historically significant cemeteries are scattered throughout the rural townships, including Mount Pleasant Cemetery and Spring Grove Cemetery, offering valuable points of reference for genealogists. Small crossroads communities like Millerstown, Rosewood, and Carysville represent the enduring settlement patterns of the region. The map also captures several family-named landmarks such as Heck Hill and various private burial grounds like the Zimmerman Cemetery, providing a detailed look at the local land ownership and cultural geography during the early 21st century.
