About this map

Fishing Creek winds through this 1940s landscape, serving as the primary geographic axis for the settlements of Benton and Stillwater in northern Columbia County. The rural economy of the mid-twentieth century is visible through the concentration of infrastructure at Derrs and the presence of Coles Mill along the waterway. The map provides significant genealogical value for the area, detailing rural institutions like the Greenwood Union Ch and Rohrsburg Cem, alongside small educational centers including Upper Pine Sch and the Consolidated Sch.
