Great Link to hillmap.com Thank you!!!

T256 is definitely Job-Greenville Rd and there is state game land access and parking on both Rt 7 in Ohio and from Orangeville-Kinsman in PA - Access in Ohio is almost directly across from Badger High next to a crop field as you have described. The unmarked road ends at a parking area and the river is a little hike. There are 2 older stone bridge foundations back in the woods. What we think was the road is covered with trees and brush and I haven't found out when it was closed. We didn't walk all the way to the larger bridge foundation from the PA side. The old stones are impressive on the larger bridge. From either Ohio or PA it seems like a bit of a hike carrying boats to get to a decent access point.

When I was searching I got a good view from the GIS map at the Trumbull County Auditor's site. Mercer County has FINALLY published a GIS parcel map this year with aerial layers ... yes! I also tried to find Ghaulie on historical maps and looked for the name Ghaulie on census records - genealogy sites... thinking it was named after a resident.

Do you know when the Milligan East Rd Bridge was closed? It looks like it is in great shape and not built too long ago? Perhaps due to flooding? I can't find any information online about it.

EDIT Addendum...the cal topo map at Hillmap.com has a dotted line where the road used to be which is lot like the GIS map at the trumbull county site.... that's how we figured out where the bridges might be - the dotted lines for the roads. The Hillmap is much nicer though... thanks!
