1961 Map of Centerburg

About this map

The intersection of several rural townships including Hilliar, South Bloomfield, and Milford defines this portion of the Ohio countryside. At the heart of the region sits Centerburg, a hub surrounded by a network of smaller communities like Mt Liberty and Bloomfield. The landscape is largely agricultural, punctuated by numerous Gravel Pits and the winding course of the North Fork Licking River and Sugar Creek. Genealogists will find a wealth of local burial sites, from the prominent Centerburg Cem and Eastview Cem to the smaller Houck Cem and Moreland Cem located near Milford Ch. Further south, the Chapman Memorial Airport and the local Fairground highlight the community's mid-century infrastructure and social gathering points.
