1960 Map of Willard

About this map

Willard serves as the industrial and transit anchor for this portion of North Central Ohio, defined by the heavy infrastructure of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. This network branches through the landscape, connecting the urban center to outlying agricultural communities such as New Haven, Steuben, and Celeryville. The topography is marked by the winding paths of the Huron River and its West Branch, which provide the drainage for the surrounding township lands. Residential and civic life is anchored by landmarks like St Josephs Ch, the local High Sch, and the Willard Airport. To the south, the village of Plymouth sits along the rail lines, while smaller clusters like Guinea Corners and Boughtonville dot the eastern rural landscape. For those researching family history, the map includes significant sites such as Greenwood Cem, Maple Grove Cem, and Hoyt Cem.
