1960 Map of Rawson

About this map

The village of Rawson sits at the intersection of local rail and agricultural interests in this mid-century portrait of Hancock County. The New York Chicago and St Louis railroad serves as a primary corridor through the terrain, connecting Mount Cory and the outlying area of Youngstown. This era is defined by a transition toward modern education and infrastructure, evidenced by the central Cory-Rawson High Sch and a series of pipelines and radio range stations that cross the landscape.
