1961 Map of Ostrander

About this map

The Scioto River carves a central path through this landscape, defining the rural character of Delaware and Union Counties in the early 1960s. The village of Ostrander serves as a hub for the surrounding agricultural community, where numerous crossroads settlements like Gabriel Corners, Fairview Corners, and Brindle Corner mark the intersections of early transit routes. Along the river, industry and infrastructure are evident at White Sulphur and the small riverside community of Klondike, where the New York Central railroad crosses the water.
