地理[編輯]

The runs of the Rocky Fork Creek and Blacklick Creek in Plain Township (blue) and New Albany (yellow), in the northeast corner of Franklin County.

Located in the northeastern corner of the county, it consists of a large section in the north and east and several small "islands" in the southwest. While the islands are surrounded by the city of Columbus, the large section borders the following townships and cities:

Two municipalities are located in Plain Township:

  • Part of the city of Columbus, in the southwest
  • The village of New Albany, in the center

The northern part of Plain Township is situated in the headwaters of the Rocky Fork Creek, a tributary of the Big Walnut Creek.[4] From north to south, the Fancher Run, Schleppi Run, Bevelheimer Run, and Sugar Run of the Rocky Fork Creek wind through the township. Blacklick Creek runs from the northeast part of the township, south through New Albany, and on to the southeast section of the township.

Name and history[編輯]

Statewide, other Plain Townships are located in Stark, Wayne, and Wood counties.

Plain Township was organized in 1810.[5]

In 1970 Plain Township stetched five miles (8 km) by five miles, with the only exception to its being a full 25平方英里(65平方公里) being the fairly small town of New Albany. The southeast part of the township has since mainly become part of New Albany while the southwest has been annexed by Columbus.
