1968 Map of New Burlington

About this map

New Burlington and its surrounding countryside are captured here during a period of transition as the Caesar Creek Lake reservoir begins to alter the local landscape. The map details a network of rural settlements like Spring Valley, Kingman, and Harveysburg, along with smaller hamlets such as Pogue Corners and Maple Corner. Evidence of the area's deep history is present at the Indian Mound and the Covered Bridge crossing the Anderson Fork. The agricultural character of the era is reflected in the numerous country churches and burial grounds, including the Caesar Creek Ch and New Burlington Cem. Geologists and local historians can trace the paths of several waterways like Painters Run and Turkey Run before they were impacted by the reservoir's expansion into the newly established Caesar Creek State Park.
