2016 Map of Woodburn North

About this map

The Maumee River meanders across this landscape on the border of Indiana and Ohio, defining the geography of eastern Allen and western Paulding counties. This agricultural region is shaped by an extensive network of drainage features such as Hamm Ditch, Zuber Ditch, and S Br Marie DeLarme Cr, which support the fertile farmland surrounding Woodburn. Of particular interest to historians is the route of the Wabash and Erie Canal, which follows the river's southern bank through the territory. Small rural communities like Halls Corners and Georgetown anchor the road network in the north, while local heritage is preserved in sites like Diehl Cem and Banks Cem. The presence of Bluecast Spring and the Brenneke Airport west of the river adds distinct localized landmarks to this mid-2010s survey of the borderlands.
