Ohio Canal Plat Map Collection
Description: Canal plat map showing a section of the Miami and Erie Canal through Miami County, between stations 8114 and 8160. Roads, properties, railways and other landmarks along the route are noted, including the Miami River which runs near the canal in this area. A portion of this length of the canal also runs past Eldean, Ohio, and the Allen and Wheeler Mills. The map was created under the direction of the members of the Canal Commission of the state of Ohio and approved by the Chief Engineer of the Department of Public Works (variously referred to as the Board of Public Works and the Division of Public Works). Construction on the Miami and Erie Canal took place between 1825 and 1845, and the finished route connected Cincinnati and Toledo, as well as the Ohio River with Lake Erie. View on Ohio Memory.
