About this map

Sandusky sits at the heart of this Lake Erie shoreline study, illustrating a dense urban grid that transitions into the recreation-focused peninsula of Cedar Point. The map reveals a complex maritime landscape where the Moseley Channel Range Lights and Sandusky Pier Light guide traffic into a harbor lined with various docks, including Cedar Point Marina and Battery Park Marina.

Genealogists will find this sheet particularly valuable for its documentation of local burial sites, notably the Confederate Cemetery on Johnson Island and the Cholera Cemetery within the city limits. Moving inland, the map captures the residential expansion of neighborhoods like Lincolnshire and Southgate Acres, alongside the agricultural history represented by the Erie County Farm and Hermes Dairy Farm. The southern reach of the quadrangle shows the smaller crossroads of Wilmer and Bogart, connected by a network of drainage ways such as Taylor Ditch and Plum Brook that define the low-lying coastal plain.
