1961 Map of La Rue

About this map

The Scioto River winds through this rural landscape at the intersection of Hardin and Marion counties, anchoring a network of small settlements and family-named cemeteries. La Rue stands as the primary hub, served by the New York Central and the Erie-Lackawanna railroads which intersect near the center of town. The surrounding townships, including Dudley, Montgomery, and Bowling Green, are defined by an agricultural grid dotted with small family burial grounds like Crandall Cem, Myres Cem, and Vesey Cem.
