About this map

East Fork Whitewater River defines the western valley of this landscape, anchoring a rural network of small communities and family landmarks. The mid-century topography reveals a densely settled agricultural region spanning Liberty and Harmony townships, where the Baltimore and Ohio railroad cuts through the northeastern corner near Lotus. Community life centers on distributed institutions such as the Old Townhouse Sch, Salem Ch, and Franklin Ch. Of particular note for genealogists and local historians are the numerous burial grounds and vanished church sites, including Calvary Cem and the Old Bath Springs Ch. The map also captures the distinct boundary between Union Co and Franklin Co, showing the proximity of settlements like Fairfield and Old Bath to the county line during this era of post-war stability.
