1955 Map of Galena

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Otterbein College and the northern reaches of Westerville anchor the southern edge of this mid-1950s survey of southern Delaware County. The landscape is defined by the nascent Hoover Reservoir along Big Walnut Creek, where the shoreline reaches past Mackstown toward the village of Galena. The map documents a rural Ohio transition, showing long-established settlements like Africa and Cheshire alongside mid-century landmarks like Victory Camp and the Sunbury Golf Course.
