1951 Map of New Middletown

About this map

New Middletown and the surrounding townships of Springfield and Poland occupy the rolling landscape of eastern Ohio during the early 1950s. This survey records a period of significant infrastructure development, most notably the path of the Ohio Turnpike (Under Construction) cutting southeast toward the Pennsylvania border. The map is a vital resource for genealogists, as it documents several historic congregational sites such as Old Springfield Ch and St Lukes Ch, along with numerous local burial grounds including Bethel Cem and Zion Cem. Notable water bodies like Evans Lake and Pine Lake dominate the western portion of the quadrangle, while smaller communities like Ginger Hill and Smith Corners mark the intersections of established rural routes like Calla Road and Western Reserve Rd.
