The Atlas shows the townships as of 1880. And it's historical section,plus EVANS and Stivers"History of Adams Co" describe original formation of townships,and their parents,and boundries. I think the western boundry of the county shifted a bit also. Due north from mouth of Eagle,or forks of Eagle, "or" once Adams co laid out a road from Eagle west to RED OAK-couple miles at RIPLEY. That's in the pre-1818 era pre a BROWN CO. when ADAMS CO joined Pleasant township,Clermont Co [1802]. Then,at least 1 original township name was replaced. "IRON RIDGE " Township was replaced by GREENE. ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.
