1961 Map of Decatur

About this map

Decatur and the surrounding villages of Eckmansville and Fairview anchor this early 1960s survey along the Brown and Adams County line. The landscape is defined by the winding tributaries of the Ohio River drainage, most notably Eagle Creek and the West Fork and East Fork. Significant local infrastructure is documented, including a Covered Bridge crossing near Neel, and several rural education and religious centers such as the Township School, Liberty Chapel, and Brier Ridge Church.
