1961 Map of Burr Oak

Water plays a central role in the local economy and geography, with the Prairie River and Fawn River winding across the terrain. Along these banks and scattered through the rural sections are essential community landmarks like the Fawn River Sch, Trayer Sch, and the Home for the Aged. The southern edge of the map transition into Indiana, where the Indiana Toll Road cuts a modern path across the traditional township lines of Greenfield and Noble.
