About this map

Wellsville serves as the central hub of this survey, situated at the meeting point of several county boundaries including Douglas, Franklin, Johnson, and Miami. The town’s grid is clearly defined, surrounded by a landscape of rural sections and small aviation facilities like Amar Farms Airport and Hartland Airport. The distribution of burial grounds, including Wellsville Cem, Walnut Creek Cem, and Rock Creek Cem, provides significant location data for those tracing local family roots across these disparate county lines.

A network of named waterways, such as Walnut Cr and Rock Cr, carves through the terrain, influencing the placement of early roads like Winchester Rd and Sunflower Rd. The map illustrates a modern rural infrastructure where old sectional divisions and historical creeks remain the primary landmarks, even as regional connectivity is highlighted by the passage of a major interstate corridor through the northeast corner.
