2023 Map of Wharton

About this map

Wharton and Kirby serve as the primary anchors for this agricultural portion of Wyandot County, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways and drainage improvements. Numerous family-named cemeteries, including Spoon Cem, Inman Cem, and Callahan Cem, are scattered throughout the townships, providing a clear geographic record of early settler families. The drainage of the land is carefully documented through features like Blake Ditch and the winding course of Potato Run, reflecting the area's conversion from original wetlands to productive farmland. In the south, the terrain follows Tymochtee Creek and The Outlet, while the surveyor's grid is preserved in the section lines of t2s r12e and t3s r13e. This map captures the intersection of rural infrastructure and genealogical history, from the local Po in Wharton to the Jackson Center Cem near the southern border.
