About this map

The borough of Conneautville and its surrounding countryside in Crawford County were meticulously recorded during this mid-century survey. The local landscape is defined by the north-south corridors of the Bessemer & Lake Erie railroad and the meandering Conneaut Creek, which flows past the Conneaut Valley High Sch. The map reveals a transition toward early energy infrastructure with numerous Gas Wells and a Substation scattered across the township lines of Spring and Summerhill.

Smaller hamlets and rural gathering points such as Hickernell, Rundell, and Pageville provide important touchpoints for family history research. These communities are anchored by local landmarks including the St Nicholas Ch and several burial grounds like Smith Cem and Rundell Cem. In the north, the Port Albion Airport and the village of Pont sit near the Erie County line, where the West Branch Cussewago Creek begins its descent through the Elk Creek drainage area.
