1983 Map of Withamsville

About this map

The Ohio River curves along the southwestern edge of this 1983 revision, serving as a historic boundary between Ohio and Kentucky. In the hills above the river, the transition from early rural settlements to late-century suburban growth is evident in the cluster of institutions like Sacred Heart Seminary and the State Fish Hatchery. The map documents a high density of community landmarks, from the Newtown Cem in the north to the river-bottom settlement of New Palestine. Significant educational and religious centers, including St Veronica Sch and Mt Moriah Ch, are distributed among the residential developments of Withamsville and Cherry Grove. Geologists and local historians can trace the numerous drainage systems, such as Eightmile Creek and Tenmile Creek, which historically dictated the winding path of local roads like Clough Pike.
