About this map

Lynnville and its surrounding townships define the landscape of northern Warrick County in this late 20th-century revision. The map documents an area where traditional agriculture and rural community life, centered on numerous country churches like St Pauls Cem + Ch and North Friendship Ch, coexist with large-scale industrial surface mining. Significant portions of the terrain are marked as Reclaimed Strip Mine, particularly surrounding the settlements of Eby and Stanley.

Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Kilpatrick Cem, Eden Cem, and Massey Cem. The drainage patterns of Big Creek and Smith Fork thread through the hills, punctuated by landmarks such as Bingham Hill and Dyson Knob. The township boundaries of Barton, Monroe, and Hart provide a structured look at the rural organization of the region during this period of landscape transition.
