1929 Map of Mt Sterling
USGS Topo · Published 1929About this map
Mt Sterling anchors the northeastern corner of this landscape, where the Wabash railroad line cuts through the prairie before the terrain descends into the broken drainage of the McKee Creek system. The map reveals a high density of rural institutions, particularly one-room schoolhouses like Pea Green Sch, Mound Sch, and Friendly Sch, which served the farming families of Lee and Buckhorn townships. This 1920s topography highlights a transition from the flat agricultural uplands to the dissected creek valleys where river crossings were essential for travel between Brown Co and Pike Co.
