About this map

The village of Jefferson serves as a prominent focal point in this portion of Ashtabula County, where the street grid meets the Fairground and Oakdale Cem. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Grand River to the west and Rock Creek to the south, creating a terrain carved by numerous tributaries like Three Brothers Creek and Plum Creek. Rural crossroads and small settlements such as Eagleville, Lenox Center, and Turkey Foot Corner anchor the surrounding townships of Austinburg, Morgan, and Lenox.

Evidence of the region's mid-century development appears in the updated purple overlays, which track the expansion of residential areas, a Landing Strip, and a Trailer Park. Local landmarks like Camp Yakewi and the Sacred Heart Ch provide specific points of interest for those researching community history. The map also captures the path of the Conrail line, reflecting the rail infrastructure that historically supported this agricultural and small-town corridor.
