1960 Map of Spartanburg

About this map

Agricultural fields and drainage networks define this borderland region where Randolph and Darke Counties meet along the state line. Small farming communities such as Spartanburg and Bartonia anchor the landscape, while the New York Central railroad tracks cut a diagonal path through the southern half of the sheet, passing by Crete and Glen Karn. The terrain is characterized by numerous small waterways and ditches, including Greenville Creek and Wildcat Creek, which supported the early rural economy.
