1912 Map of Hilliards
USGS Topo · Published 1912About this map
Scrubgrass Creek and its various forks carve through the landscape of Northern Butler and Southern Venango Counties, defining a region where rural industry and education were deeply decentralized. The 1912 landscape is characterized by a high density of one-room schoolhouses like Victory School and McCoy School, which served dispersed farming and mining clusters. The arrival of the Bessemer and Lake Erie RR and the Pennsylvania RR integrated remote settlements such as Annandale and Branchton into the broader industrial economy of Pennsylvania.
