1960 Map of Monroeville

About this map

Monroeville sits at a major crossroads of mid-century infrastructure where the Baltimore and Ohio and the New York Central and St Louis railroads intersect. This 1960 survey captures the rural landscape of central Huron County just as its mid-century transport network was firmly established. The hydrology of the region is defined by the winding course of the Huron River and its multiple tributaries, including the West Branch Huron River and East Branch Huron River, which carve through the townships of Ridgefield and Peru.
