About this map

Willshire and the Saint Marys River define the northern landscape of this region along the Indiana-Ohio border. This map documents a heavily agricultural corridor where small settlements like Salem and Chattanooga serve as local anchors. The rural character is punctuated by family-named landmarks and historical burial grounds, including Willshire Cem, Tricker Cem, and Zion Cem, which offer significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families.

Modern agricultural operations such as Adams Swine Farms and Adam's Farms are clearly marked alongside water features like Little Blue Cr and Duck Cr. The transportation network is built upon a grid of local routes like Rockford W Rd and Mercer Van Wert Co Line Rd, reflecting the organized land survey system of the Midwest. Aviation history is also represented by the presence of Hamrick Airport near the center of the quadrangle.
