1960 Map of Fayetteville

About this map

Fayetteville and the surrounding townships of Perry and Sterling are defined by the winding course of the East Fork Little Miami River and the Little Miami River. This landscape, situated within the Virginia Military District, reflects a rural settlement pattern where family-named roads like Templin Road and Denman Road connect dispersed small communities. Educational and religious history is centered at Saint Martin, where the Ursuline School For Girls and Ursuline Cem represent significant local landmarks. The map also records the remnants of former transport corridors, specifically the Old Railroad Grade passing through Vera Cruz. Conservation efforts are visible at the Indian Creek Wildlife Area, while various small family and parish burial grounds, including St Patricks Cem and Engle Cem, provide essential data for local genealogists tracing early residents of this Brown County region.
