About this map

The Mahoning River and Eagle Creek carve through this landscape at the junction of Portage, Geauga, and Trumbull counties. The topography is dominated by the dramatic rock formations at Nelson Kennedy Ledges State Park, which includes named landmarks like Kennedy Ledge and the nearby Lady of Fatima Ch. Settlement patterns show a mix of established village centers like Garrettsville and Parkman alongside smaller rural crossroads such as Pritchard and Soltis.

Industrial and transit footprints are evident via the Conrail line passing through the southern portion of the map and a series of extractive sites including a Strip Mine and multiple Sand & Rock Pits. Rural life is anchored by institutions like the Garfield High Sch and a network of family-named cemeteries, including Mumford Cem and the Abbott Cem. Smaller aviation history is represented by Gates Airfield and a northern Landing Strip.
