1961 Map of Belfast

About this map

Ohio Brush Creek and its many tributaries, including Lost Fork and Rock Lick Run, carve through this section of Highland and Adams counties. The landscape is dotted with small rural communities like Belfast and Berrysville, while the southern portion features the expansive Tranquility State Wildlife Area. This 1961 field check documents a dense network of family and community burial grounds, such as Walker No 1 Cem, Walker No 2 Cem, and Old Concord Cem, reflecting generations of settlement before modern consolidation. The presence of numerous small churches, including Burnetts Chapel and Zion Ch, underscores the decentralized, agrarian social structure of the mid-20th century. Road patterns emphasize local connectivity between smaller hamlets like Folsom, Fairfax, and Jessup, providing a clear view of the region's character just after the post-war era.
