1961 Map of Kilbourne

About this map

Alum Creek carves a deep valley through the center of this central Ohio landscape, serving as a primary drainage for numerous tributaries like Salt Well Run and Longwell Run. The agricultural character of the early 1960s is evident in the dispersed rural settlements and the distinct grid of township boundaries including Oxford, Brown, and Kingston. The village of Kilbourne sits prominently along the eastern bank of the creek, while small community hubs like Leonardsburg and Berkshire anchor the surrounding farmsteads.
