1914 Map of Navarre

About this map

Sugar Creek winds through a landscape defined by the intersection of three counties—Wayne, Stark, and Tuscarawas—during a period of significant industrial and hydraulic development. The massive Dover Reservoir dominates the eastern corridor, while the historic Military Treaty Line cuts an angled path across the central townships. The infrastructure of the era is remarkably dense, featuring the heavy industrial presence of the Pennsylvania System and the Wheeling and Lake Erie railroads, which served coal operations like the Fox Mine.
