1959 Map of Windham
USGS Topo · Published 1980About this map
The Ravenna Arsenal dominates the central geography of this portion of Portage County, illustrating the massive scale of military industrial land use during the mid-20th century. Bordering the Windham Military Reservation, the landscape is defined by extensive munitions storage bunkers and specialized transport networks. To the south, the Kirwan Reservoir fills the valley of the Michael Branch, while the Mahoning River winds through the village of Wayland. Transportation infrastructure is a primary feature, with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and Conrail lines intersecting the region near rural outposts like Pritchard. Local history is preserved in several small burial grounds, including Welsh Cem and Hawley Cem, which sit amidst a network of country roads such as Mc Clintocksburg Road and Old Newton Falls Road.
