Does anyone know how to obtain an early plat map of Columbia township? My Benjamin Mulford sold land to his son-in-law Joseph Edwards in 1806 - Section 32, Columbia Township. I'm told that it was down near the Ohio River; I figure probably close to Ludlow Station. I believe it would be between what is now Columbia Parkway and Madison Road. Can anyone tell me what old cemeteries would be down there? Where did they bury the Ludlow Station settlers? Thanks for your help.
