1971 Map of Nashua NW

About this map

Powersville serves as the central point of this rural landscape where the northern reaches of Butler County meet Floyd County. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage and local waterways, including the winding paths of Flood Creek, Beaver Creek, and Peters Creek. These streams cut through sections of Pleasant Grove and Riverton, shaping a topography marked by several industrial extractive sites like the various Quarry and Sandpit locations. Genealogists can trace early community focal points at St Johns Ch and the United Ch, alongside historical resting places such as Pleasant Grove Cem and Pleasant Hill Cem. The map's detail extends to fine red dashed lines that indicate selected fence and field lines as they appeared during field checks in the early 1970s.
