1958 Map of Woodburn North

About this map

The Maumee River meanders across the Indiana and Ohio state line in this mid-century topographical study, serving as the central artery for a landscape defined by its complex drainage network and early transportation corridors. The historic route of the Wabash and Erie Canal is clearly traced alongside the river, paralleling the Norfolk and Western railroad tracks. These features highlight the importance of this corridor in connecting local trade hubs like Woodburn and Antwerp. Small agricultural hamlets and crossroads such as Halls Corners, Notestine, and Georgetown dot the grid of rural roads, many of which bear family names like Hubbard Road and Zuber Road. Cultural landmarks including Bethel Ch and the Sayer Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family roots in this border region, while features like Bluecast Spring and various Oil Well sites indicate the area's natural resources and early industrial ventures.
