About this map

The Little Miami River valley and its surrounding townships define this 1965 survey, documenting a period of suburban expansion within the Virginia Military District. Several established settlements including Goshen, Mt Repose, and Mulberry are mapped alongside newer residential developments like Springvale and several trailer parks. This era shows a landscape in transition, where legacy features like the Covered Bridge near Stonelick Creek and the St Philomena Ch stand near mid-century additions such as the Drive-in Theater and the Fairacres Golf Club.

Cultural and civic centers are well-documented, from the Fairgrounds in Owensville to the Milford High Sch and Elizabeth Seton Sch. The transportation network relies on historical routes like the Woodville Pike and the Norfolk and Western railroad corridor. Numerous family-named runs and small lakes, such as Red R Lake and Orchard Lake, drain the varied terrain of Stonelick and Miami townships, providing a clear record of local drainage and land use before later development.
