1961 Map of New Bedford

About this map

New Bedford sits at the high-point divide of the eastern edge of this 1961 survey, where rural life in Holmes and Coshocton counties revolves around a dense network of country schools and churches. The landscape is deeply carved by drainage systems like Doughty Creek and Mill Creek, supporting small agricultural hamlets such as Becks Mills and Chili. The presence of a localized Townhall and several named schools, including Flat Ridge Sch and Green Ridge Sch, indicates a well-established township structure in Mechanic and Crawford.
