About this map

West Salem and the rural townships of northwestern Wayne County are defined by a mosaic of agricultural operations and small community centers. This landscape is punctuated by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Warners Congress Cem and the Old Dutch Reformed Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement history of the region. The map captures a transition where traditional agriculture meets specialized land uses, including the Pleasant Home Gliding Club Gliderport near Pleasant Home.

Waterways like Killbuck Creek and its tributary Little Killbuck Cr carve through the terrain, while the Interstate corridor bisects the township plains. Named agricultural properties like Twin Parks Farm and Miley Holsteins Farms underscore the enduring dairy and poultry presence. Small crossroads settlements like Lattasburg, Armstrong, and Congress serve as navigational anchors amidst the grid of country roads and creek valleys.
