1961 Map of Coshocton

About this map

The Tuscarawas River and Walhonding River converge here to form the Muskingum River, creating a vital water junction for the city of Coshocton. In the early 1960s, the landscape around this river fork reflects a transition from traditional agriculture to heavy industrial extraction, evidenced by numerous strip mines cutting through the hills of White Eyes and Lafayette. The urban core of Coshocton is well-defined, showing the layout of the city near South Lawn Cemetery and the County Fairground.
