1961 Map of Jeromesville

About this map

Jeromesville serves as the focal point of this Ashland County landscape, where the Erie Railroad tracks cut a diagonal path across the valley of the Jerome Fork. The map documents a rural Ohio economy in transition, balancing established agriculture with active extraction, as evidenced by numerous Oil Wells and Gas Wells scattered throughout Perry and Montgomery townships. The infrastructure of the early 1960s is clearly visible, including a prominent Pipeline and a Pumping Station north of Rowsburg.
