1993 Map of Worthington

About this map

Worthington and the surrounding borderlands of Butler and Armstrong counties are defined by the winding course of Buffalo Creek, which carves through the undulating terrain of West Franklin and Winfield townships. This 1993 edition, based on earlier surveys and updated via 1990s aerial photography, documents a landscape where agricultural settlements like Slate Lick and industrial outposts like West Winfield coexist. The infrastructure of the era is clearly visible, from the Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad crossing the creek to the Benjamin Franklin Highway cutting through the northern reaches. Local history is anchored by rural landmarks such as St Johns Ch, McKee Chapel, and the milling sites of Buffalo Mills and Dennys Mills. The map also captures the extent of natural resource extraction, showing various Strip Mine and Quarry operations alongside conservation efforts at State Game Lands No 259.
