About this map

Shelby anchors the southern portion of this landscape, where the Black Fork Mohican River winds through a town defined by its grid of local streets like Republic Ave and Martin Rd. To the north, the terrain transitions into a highly structured agricultural layout along the borders of Huron Co, Richland Co, and Crawford Co. This 2016 survey captures the precise intersection of three counties, marked by long straight corridors such as Base Line Rd W.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-documented burial grounds, including Pioneer Rest Cem and Green Lawn Cem near Plymouth, and the more isolated Hanna Cem further west. Smaller settlements such as Auburn Center, Gardner, and London remain as distinct points on the map, connected by a network of rural routes like New Washington Rd and Shelby Ganges Rd. Water features like the Celeryville Reservoir and Cooke Pond Number Two break the geometry of the surrounding farmsteads.
