About this map

Agricultural lands and industrial drainage systems define this section of Monroe and Wayne Counties in the late 1960s. The village of Carleton serves as a central hub, flanked by the Penndel and Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridors that supported the region's shipping and transit. Small rural settlements like Waltz, Scofield, and Grafton are documented alongside a network of country schools, including Red Sch and McGowan Sch, reflecting the community-based education patterns of the mid-20th century.

Water management is prominent across the landscape, with numerous engineered channels such as the Carroll Drain and Zink and Murphy Drain feeding into Stony Creek and Swan Creek. Local heritage is preserved in the locations of St Patricks Cem and Felt Cem, while the presence of a Quarry near Scofield and the Airport High Sch indicates the area's transition toward modern industrial and educational infrastructure.
