2013 Map of Sardinia

About this map

Sardinia and Mowrystown anchor this rural landscape along the boundary of Brown and Highland Counties, where a network of state routes and creek-side roads connects several smaller settlements. The terrain is defined by the branching waters of the N Fork White Oak Creek and East Fork White Oak Creek, which drain a countryside dotted with agricultural landmarks like the Memory Lane Tree Farm and Workman Farm. Local history is deeply embedded in the land, marked by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Hollowtown Cem, Higgins Cem, and Ebenezer Cem. Smaller locales like Buford, Gath, and Needfull appear as concentrated hubs of activity along the thoroughfares of Oh-134 and Oh-138. The map documents a traditional Ohio township structure where crossroads like these have maintained their identity through generations of local farming and trade.
