1969 Map of Elmore
USGS Topo · Published 1971About this map
The Portage River winds through Northwest Ohio, anchoring the industrial and agricultural landscape of Ottawa and Sandusky Counties in the late 1960s. The village of Elmore and nearby Woodville serve as central hubs along the Penn Central railroad, while Gibsonburg marks the southern edge of this detailed survey. Extensive oil production is evident across the terrain, with numerous Oil Wells scattered near Aldrich Pond and the surrounding rural townships. The infrastructure of the era is prominently displayed through the Ohio Toll Turnpike cutting across the north, and a local Drive-in Theater situated near Busy Corners. Notable local institutions including the Woodmore High Sch and several well-established burial grounds like Veterans Mem Cem and West Union Cem provide significant landmarks for genealogical research and local history studies.
