1961 Map of Pedro

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Wayne National Forest dominates this landscape along the border of Scioto and Lawrence counties, where the industrial history of southern Ohio is etched into the hills. The map highlights the region's transition from 19th-century iron production to mid-20th-century resource extraction, marked by the presence of Buckhorn Furnace (Ruins) and Lawrence Furnace (Ruins). These historic sites are surrounded by active Strip Mines and numerous Claypits, particularly near the settlement of Superior. The Detroit Toledo and Ironton railroad winds through the valleys, connecting small communities like Pedro and Lisman to the larger transport network. Researchers can identify local landmarks such as the Pilot Knob Lookout Tower and several remote family burial grounds, including Finley Cem and Rogers Cem, which remain tucked away in the steep hollows.
