1960 Map of Ashtabula South

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Ashtabula River carves a deep, wooded valley through the northeast corner of this 1960s landscape, serving as a backdrop for the residential expansion of Ashtabula and Edgewood. This era shows a community in transition, where established neighborhoods like Saybrook on-the-Lake and the academic grounds of Grand River Academy High Sch in Austinburg coexist with a busy industrial and transport corridor. The confluence of the New York Central Railroad and the Pennsylvania Railroad highlights the region's historical role as a shipping and logistics hub. Moving south, the terrain softens into agricultural plots and small creeks like Coffee Creek and Griggs Creek. Significant local history is preserved in the numerous burial grounds, including the Chestnut Grove Cemetery and the more remote Hickok Cem, while the presence of a Covered Bridge near the Grand River offers a glimpse of the rural infrastructure of the day.
