1917 Map of Bainbridge

USGS Topo · Published 1917

About this map

Ancient earthworks and a densely settled rural landscape define this southern Ohio region during the early twentieth century. The map prominently features the Serpent Mound in the south, while Fort Hill and an Indian Mound near Bainbridge highlight the deep cultural history of the Paint Creek valley. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like Irons Mountain and Starr Mountain, with drainage provided by the Rocky Fork and Sunfish Creek. Small agricultural communities and mill sites are scattered throughout, including Barretts Mills and Sinking Spring. A network of early transportation routes, such as the Cincinnati Road and Waverly Road, connects numerous one-room schoolhouses like Cedar Chapel School and Snake Corners School. This survey captures the transition from horse-and-buggy travel to the early automobile era, evidenced by named junctions such as Spellman Crossing.
