1972 Map of Ossian

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Ossian and the high ridges of Rattlesnake Hill define this rural landscape on the border of Livingston and Allegany Counties. In the early 1970s, this area remained largely defined by upland agriculture and conservation, featuring the Wildlife State Management Area and extensive tracts of the State Reforestation Area. Small hamlets like Byersville and Westview provide focal points for local history, while the map preserves the locations of several community landmarks including the Red School and Oaklawn Cem. Drainage patterns are clearly marked by the flow of Sugar Creek and Bradner Creek through the eastern valleys, contrasting with the steep terrain of Wildcat Gully in the north. This survey captures a specific era of land management and rural settlement before modern changes to the forest and road networks.
