1966 Map of Galloway

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Big Darby Creek and Little Darby Creek define the western edge of this landscape, where the rural character of Franklin and Madison counties begins to meet the expanding suburban footprint of Columbus. The map illustrates a transitional era during the late 1960s and early 1980s, documenting established small communities like Alton, Galloway, and Georgesville alongside new developments. The presence of numerous schools and local landmarks, such as Prairie-Lincoln Sch and the Alton-Hall Sch, indicates the post-war growth of residential neighborhoods. Transportation is a central theme, with the Conrail rail lines and National Road bisecting the terrain. Regional aviation is represented by Bolton Airfield and the Columbus Southwest Airport, while local history is preserved in small burial grounds like Clover Cem and Ebenezer Cem.
