1961 Map of Bellville

Evidence of the region's agricultural and industrial infrastructure is visible in the alignment of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and the presence of scattered rural crossroads like Bangorville and Batemantown. The surveying of Treaty Line Lane underscores the historic boundary divisions that shaped the settlement patterns of Richland, Morrow, and Knox counties. Local landmarks such as the Craft Airport and Grange Hall further define the mid-century character of these small Ohio townships.
