1912 Map of Dover

About this map

The Tuscarawas River and Sandy Creek valleys serve as the central corridors for this 1912 survey, which was updated in 1948 to reflect retarding dams and flooding areas. The landscape is heavily influenced by the industrial and transport infrastructure of the era, notably the Pennsylvania RR and the Wheeling and Lake Erie RR which converge near Valley Junction. A relic of earlier commerce, the Canal, remains visible tracing the riverbank past the historic communal settlement of Zoar.
