About this map

The agrarian landscape of Clear Creek Township is documented here just before the mid-century expansion of nearby suburbs. Centered on the village of Springboro, the survey shows a network of family-named roads and rural infrastructure, including the Pumping Sta and a TV Relay Tower. Small settlements like Lytle, Ridgeville, and Kenricksville are clearly defined, often situated near crossroads or water features such as Clear Creek.

Genealogical interest is found in the scattered rural burial grounds like Rehoboth Cem, Ever Cem, and the Lytle Cem. The transportation corridors of the era are well-represented, from the active Pennsylvania Railroad line to an Old Railroad Grade further south. Notable local landmarks such as Waldruhe Park and the Township High Sch in Centerville provide glimpses into the community life of Warren and Montgomery Counties during the mid-1950s.
