1961 Map of Waterloo

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Symmes Ridge and Greasy Ridge define the complex, dissected landscape of southern Ohio shown in this 1960s study, where the Wayne National Forest encompasses much of the terrain. The map documents a rural economy in transition, marked by numerous Strip Mines and several Reclaimed Strip Mines scattered among the hollows. Small communities like Waterloo and Arabia serve as focal points along Symmes Creek, while the ridges are dotted with family-named cemeteries such as Saunders Cem, Jackson Cem, and Haskins Cem. Local spiritual life is anchored by country churches like Flag Spring Ch and Palestine Ch, providing a detailed look at the social geography of Lawrence and Gallia Counties. The extensive network of secondary routes, including Webster Rd and Mt Zion Road, connects these isolated upland settlements and family farmsteads.
