1961 Map of Greenville East

About this map

Greenville serves as the focal point for this survey of eastern Darke County, where the convergence of the Penn Central and Baltimore and Ohio railroads once supported a robust agricultural and industrial economy. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Greenville Creek, which passes by the Darke County Lake Wildlife Area and New Harrison in the northeast. This 1961 record, with 1973 photogrammetric updates, captures the rural character of unincorporated communities like Abbottsville, Nineveh, and Jaysville before modern expansion altered their footprints.
