1962 Map of Clymers

About this map

Clymers sits at the junction of the Norfolk And Western and Conrail rail lines, serving as a focal point for this landscape in the early 1960s. The map illustrates a transition from industrial activity to social infrastructure, marked by several Strip Mines and a Gravel Pit near Woodville Cem in the south, contrasted by the extensive grounds of Longcliff Hospital near the Wabash River. The inclusion of the Wabash And Erie Canal alignment near Grants Run provides a window into the region's earlier transportation history alongside modern developments like the Logansport Municipal Airport. Throughout the townships of Clinton and Washington, numerous family and community landmarks are preserved, including St Johns Cem, Shideler Cem, and Mt Pisgah Ch, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this portion of Cass and Carroll Counties.
