1961 Map of Polk

About this map

Agricultural lands and rural townships in Ashland County define this early 1960s survey, capturing the intersection of historical boundaries and mid-century infrastructure. The landscape is structured by the North Boundary Connecticut Western Reserve Old Seven Ranges, a significant cadastral line separating northern and southern survey systems. The village of Polk serves as a central hub, situated along the Erie-Lackawanna railroad, while smaller settlements like Redhaw and the locality of Goldie appear further south. Numerous family and community landmarks are documented, including Albion Cem, St Johns Ch, and Mt Pleasant Ch. Resource extraction is evident near the eastern edge with several Sand and Gravel Pits noted, while the drainage of the Muddy Fork and Redhaw Creek winds through the predominantly open terrain.
