1971 Map of Bennington
USGS Topo · Published 1993About this map
Pleasant and Bennington serve as the primary hubs in this corner of Switzerland County during the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by its dramatic ridges and creek forks, with Greenbrier Ridge and Smith Ridge dictating the placement of rural roads and homesteads. Local heritage is deeply rooted in the numerous country churches and burial grounds that dot the upland terrain, including Horse Chapel, Caledonia Ch, and the Zion Cem. Transport history is represented by the Treaty Line Road, which follows a significant boundary through the township. The drainage patterns of Brushy Fork and Kentuck Creek carve out deep hollows like Sugar Hollow, creating a complex network of natural corridors that have historically influenced the settlement patterns of Shelby and Milton townships.
