1972 Map of Connersville

About this map

Connersville and its surrounding Fayette County landscape are defined by the convergence of the Whitewater River and several significant rail lines during the early 1970s. The city core shows dense development around the Courthouse and City Hall, while its industrial and civic infrastructure includes Mettel Field, the Fairgrounds, and multiple radio towers such as Radio Tower (WEMB). Outside the city, the land transitions into a network of rural townships—Posey, Washington, and Harrison—where smaller settlements like Bentonville and Beesons persist along the Penn Central and Norfolk and Western tracks.
