1960 Map of Bristolville

About this map

Bloomfield, Greene, and Bristol townships appear here during a period of transition, defined by the expansion of the Mosquito Creek Reservoir along the eastern boundary. The landscape is a patchwork of woodlots and agricultural fields, crisscrossed by family-named thoroughfares like Flagg East Road and Mahan Denman Road. The Pennsylvania railroad line cuts a straight north-south path through the center of the sheet, anchoring several small rural centers including Lockwood, Oakfield, and North Bristol. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites documented, ranging from the Old Bristol Cem and Evergreen Cem in Bristolville to the smaller Latimer Cem and Norton Cem. The presence of a Landing Strip and scattered Oil Wells indicates the mix of modern utility and traditional resource extraction in this corner of Trumbull County.
