1961 Map of Lewisville

About this map

The Wayne National Forest and the Monroe Lake State Wildlife Area dominate the southeast and central portions of this landscape, reflecting a region defined by conservation and resource extraction. The map reveals an intensive network of Oil Wells and pipelines scattered across the hills, particularly around Monroefield and south toward Lewisville. This industrial activity shares the land with older cultural footprints, including numerous family and church burial sites such as the Free Burial Ground and Eggar Cem.
