Yes, that is correct...there was (and still is, I think!) a Chicago, OH. I thought this location-name was a little confusing at first, just like when I found out there actually IS a Deleware, OH. In other words, no misprints here!

At any rate here's a great look back at what a well travelled unpaved roadway in the forementioned community of Chicago looked like just about a century ago with a tall telephone toll circuit or subscriber lines pararelling it.
