1960 Map of Lagrange

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

East Branch Black River winds through this portion of the Connecticut Western Reserve, defining a landscape where agriculture meets industrial extraction. By the early 1960s, the terrain south of Lagrange and Belden was dotted with numerous gas and oil wells, most notably within the Preston Oil Field in the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The influence of the extractive industry is mirrored by a dense network of transportation, where heavy rail lines like the Baltimore and Ohio and the Akron Canton and Youngstown intersect near Litchfield. Rural life remains anchored by established landmarks such as the Penfield Ch and several family burying grounds, including Knowles Cem and Aldrich Cem. The appearance of the Meadow Aire Farm Airport highlights the mid-century integration of private aviation into the traditional farming landscape of Penfield and Grafton townships.
