The coal-mining heritage of Mercer County is evident in the layout of Matherville, a village established around the turn of the 20th century to serve local shafts. This late-century survey, based on aerial photography from 1986, details the transition of the landscape from an intensive mining hub into a primarily agricultural and rural residential region. The village of Sherrard sits near the eastern edge of the sheet, connected to the surrounding countryside by historical corridors like Knoxville Road and Ridge Road.
