1917 Map of Bainbridge

About this map

Serpent Mound and an ancient Indian Mound anchor this 1917 survey of the south-central Ohio highlands, where the terrain transitions into complex ridges and knobs. The landscape is defined by the drainage of Paint Creek and Ohio Brush Creek, supporting a network of early industry such as Barretts Mills, a Factory, and the McCoppin Mill. Small agricultural and milling communities like Sinking Spring, Rainsboro, and Bainbridge are connected by the Cincinnati Road.
