1961 Map of West Mansfield

About this map

The village of West Mansfield sits at the crossing of the New York Central railroad and Logan County highways, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural townships of Washington, York, and Liberty. This early 1960s landscape is defined by the headwaters of Rush Creek, Bokes Creek, and Mill Creek, which drain a countryside dotted with small crossroads settlements like North Greenfield and Horton. Notable for genealogists and local historians, the area is rich with family and community markers, including the Quaker Cem, Hathaway Cem, and Southard Cem, alongside local congregations at Good Hope Ch and Bethel Ch. A unique historical boundary, the Treaty Line, cuts diagonally across the northern half of the survey, while the presence of Camp Macochee and several Gravel Pits reflects the area's recreational and industrial land use during this era.
