About this map

The Stillwater River cuts a winding path through this western Ohio landscape, connecting the agricultural communities of Versailles, Bradford, and Russia. This 2019 survey documents a region defined by its rural heritage and early 21st-century settlement patterns, where county lines separate Darke, Miami, and Shelby counties. The map is particularly dense with historical burial grounds, ranging from large sites like Greenlawn Cem in Versailles to smaller, family-named landmarks such as Hoover Cem and Munk Cem.

Smaller hamlets like Webster, Bloomer, and Clayton are situated along a grid of township and county roads, often centered near water features like Swamp Creek or Harris Creek. Notable landmarks include Saint Peters Lutheran Cem and Saint Valberts Cem, which reflect the area's religious and cultural roots. Local drainage systems, such as Blase Ditch and Apple Ditch, reveal the managed nature of the surrounding farmland south of Russia Houston Road.
