1951 Map of Hillsboro

About this map

The winding Licking River forms a serpentine border between Fleming and Bath counties on this mid-century topographic survey. Centered on the community of Hillsboro, the landscape is defined by the tight drainage patterns of numerous small waterways, including Locust Creek, Hillsboro Branch, and Buttermilk Branch. These tributaries carve through the upland terrain, where small settlements like Poplar Plains and Sunset are connected by a network of rural roads and light-duty routes.
