See main article: Shattucksburg, Ohio.
Shattucksburg was first created when Simon Shattuck sold some of his land off into some plots.[2] The town lasted for many years, and disappeared in the 1970s.
Shattucksburg was founded somewhere before 1856.[3] Shattucksburg was along what was then Henderson Road, now DeSantis Court and Old Henderson Road, where it met Kenny Road. The town was not meant to truly become a town; however, with the railroad being put through town in the mid-1800s, it did, and between 1910[4] and 1927,[5] the town grew to have six streets, not including Henderson Road. The six streets were Mobile Drive, Midwest Drive, Inglewood Avenue, Winton Road, Lincoln Road, and Edgewood Drive. The town began to disappear from maps in the 1970s, one of the last maps showing the town as a whole was the 1960 Census Tract Map of Franklin County.[6] The town had disappeared from maps for the most part by 1974, with Winton Road and Mobile Drive as exceptions.[7] The last original roads remaining as of 2016 are Mobile Drive, Henderson Road (now Old Henderson Road), Midwest Drive, and a property line/grass strip between a Weight Watchers center and a Wolfe Sons Heating & Cooling warehouse, marking where Winton Road was. Currently, the former land of the town consists of mostly industrial buildings, including Evans Adhesive, Dale Cleaners, and a museum of trains, called The Depot.[8] A secondary name for the area currently is Midwest Boulevard, even though there is no Midwest Boulevard, only a Midwest Drive. This error of the nickname "Midwest Boulevard" is shown on the map in the infobox.
Sullivant was a town named after Lucas Sullivant.
This neighborhood was mainly inhabited by the Bacons, and followed a small road named Thomas Lane. It was platted between 1872 and 1910.[9] Thomas Lane exists today, but no longer crosses the railroad and is suburbanized.
