1969 Map of Jerry City
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The Portage River watershed defines this landscape in Wood County, where the north, middle, south, and east branches converge. In 1969, the area around Jerry City remains a productive agricultural and energy landscape, marked by a high density of Oil Wells and gas infrastructure that dots the rural townships of Bloom, Center, and Montgomery. These small settlements are anchored by local institutions such as Elmwood High Sch and the County Home located near the North Branch Portage River. The transition from small-scale family farming to modern infrastructure is visible through the Radio Tower (WTLG) and the extensive grid of rural roads like Greensburg Pike and Mermill Rd. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of rural religious and community centers, including Mt Zion Ch and Fish Cem near New Rochester.
