1960 Map of Payne

About this map

Payne serves as the primary hub of this Northwest Ohio landscape, situated at the intersection of critical regional drainage and transport lines. The Norfolk and Western railroad corridor bisects the town, connecting it to smaller outlying communities like Worstville and Briceton. This survey shows a meticulously organized agricultural grid within Harrison, Paulding, Benton, and Blue Creek townships, where family history is anchored by several rural burying grounds including Snellenbarger, Wiltsie, Lehman, and Dealey cemeteries.
