1954 Map of Cromwell

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Green River carves a deep, meandering path through the heart of this landscape, defining the boundary between Ohio Co and Butler Co. In the mid-1950s, this region was characterized by a river-and-rail economy, where the Illinois Central railroad lines served active strip mines in the western hills near Prentiss. The map captures a network of small, rural communities and family landmarks, including Logansport, Shultztown, and Highview. Notable for genealogists are the numerous country churches and associated burial grounds, such as New Harmony Ch, Slaty Creek Cem, and Lebanon Ch. Transportation across the river remained localized, evidenced by Reeds Ferry at Little Bend, while topographic features like Negro Hill and Tilford Knob dominate the interior terrain between the river's winding loops.
