1960 Map of Lisbon

About this map

The county seat of Lisbon serves as the focal point of this Eastern Ohio landscape, where the Middle Fork Little Beaver Creek winds through a valley shaped by heavy industry and transit. By the early 1970s, the area's economic foundations are visible in the numerous strip mines that pockmark the hillsides, particularly around Logtown and Leetonia. The transport network is anchored by the Penn Central and Erie-Lackawanna railroads, which facilitated the movement of coal and industrial goods through the region.
