1950 Map of Arney

About this map

Eel River and White River converge at the southern boundary of this Owen and Greene County border region, creating a landscape defined by sharp oxbows and fertile bottoms. The settlement of Point Commerce sits at this significant river junction just north of Worthington, while the namesake hamlet of Arney serves as a central point for the upland farming communities. Evidence of early mid-century rural life is visible in the numerous country churches and family burial grounds, including Dutch Bethel Ch and the Harrison Cem. The transit infrastructure of the era is anchored by the Harrison Memorial Highway and the Pennsylvania Railroad, which follows the river course. Notably, the map records Farmers Ferry operating across the White River, a vital local link before modern bridge networks became ubiquitous. High ground is marked by prominent elevations such as Need Hill and Dillon Hill, which rise above the creek valleys of Beech Creek and Fish Creek.
