1961 Map of Fairview
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
Hendrysburg and Fairview anchor this portion of the eastern Ohio landscape, where the rugged topography of the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District meets the industrial reality of coal country. The map captures a detailed view of extractive land use, with numerous Strip Mine and Strip Mines operations marking the ridges and valleys between Sewellsville and Cabinet. This era of development is defined by the transition from rural agricultural routes to the high-speed infrastructure of Route 70, which cuts through the center of the sheet near Hope Cem. To the north, the waters of Piedmont Lake fill the valley of Stillwater Creek, while the southern reaches show the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor near Olivet. Genealogists will find several family and community landmarks, including Fairview Cem, Gibson Cem, and the rural Salem Ch.
