1961 Map of Lucasville

About this map

Wayne National Forest dominates the central landscape of this southern Ohio survey, where the complex ridge-and-hollow topography is defined by the winding drainages of Salt Creek and Pecks Creek. In the southwest corner, the growing community of Lucasville is marked by the Preston Addition and Tomlinson Addition, serving as a hub near the intersection of the Norfolk and Western and Chesapeake and Ohio railroads. The area's industrial character is highlighted by several Claypits and a sprawling U S Reservation Atomic Energy Commission site in the northwest. Local life is documented through scattered landmarks such as Victory Chapel and the Valley Local High Sch, alongside numerous small family burial grounds including Slavens Cem and Adams Cem.
