About this map

Wooster and its surrounding Wayne County landscape are centered on the valley where Apple Creek meets Killbuck Creek. In the early 21st century, the area reflects a deeply rooted educational and agricultural heritage, anchored by the campus of The Coll of Wooster and its Papp Stadium, alongside the Ohio State Univ Agricultural Technical Institute. The map captures numerous family-named agricultural holdings such as Maple Lane Farm, Cebul Farm, and Kuhtes Fruit Farm, demonstrating the persistent rural character surrounding the city center.

Transportation corridors including the W & L E RR and historic routes like W Old Lincoln Way connect outlying settlements such as Madisonburg, Honeytown, and Burnetts Corners. Notable landmarks for researchers include a series of local cemeteries, from the Saint Marys Cem to the Wayne County Home Cem. The terrain is marked by distinct features like Madison Hill and Sylvan Lake, providing a detailed look at the interface between the urban grid and the working landscape of central Ohio.
