1968 Map of Steubenville West

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Fernwood State Forest and the rugged winding valley of Cross Creek define the landscape west of the industrial riverfront in the late 1960s. The map captures a moment of transition where established residential areas like Wintersville and Steubenville meet the heavy industrial and extraction zones of the upper Ohio Valley. Evidence of the region’s resource-based economy is visible throughout the terrain in numerous strip mines, oil wells, and gas wells that dot the ridges above Mingo Junction. Local genealogy is well-represented through institutions like Union Cemetery, Mt Calvary Cemetery, and the Tent Ch Cem near McIntyre Creek. This 1968 survey also documents the mid-century infrastructure of the area, including the US Naval Reserve Training Center, the Cross Creek Airpark, and the rail lines of the Conrail and Norfolk And Western systems.
