1959 Map of Milan
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The Huron River carves a deep, winding path through this northern Ohio landscape, shaping the development of Milan and the surrounding townships in the late 1950s. The map illustrates a transitional era for local infrastructure, where the modern Ohio Toll Road Turnpike bisects long-established agricultural roads like Scheid Road and Rye Beach Rd. Transportation networks define the area's economy, from the New York Central railroad corridor in the north to the Norwalk Airport near the southern boundary. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific data points, including Scotts Cem, Milan Cem, and St Marys Cem, alongside smaller settlements like Avery, Berlinville, and Shinrock. This survey serves as a detailed record of the Erie and Huron county border before modern suburban expansion significantly altered these rural communities.
