1960 Map of North Kingsville

About this map

Lake Erie defines the northern edge of this Lake County landscape, where the shoreline transition from the lakefront to the inland plateau is marked by settlements like Kingsville On-the-Lake and North Kingsville. By 1970, the transportation and utility corridors between the lake and Conneaut Creek show significant development, including the Ashtabula-Conneaut Airport and the heavy rail lines of the Penn Central and Norfolk and Western. This survey captures the region as residential areas and recreational spaces like the Golf Course and Drive-in Theater were being overlaid on an older rural grid. Local genealogy is supported by the mapping of several burial grounds, including Lulu Falls Cem, East Lake Cem, and Lake Road Cem, alongside numerous family-named roads such as Dibble Road and Wright Road that intersect the township.
