About this map

Beaver Creek and its various tributaries, including Kilsons Branch and Johnson Creek, define the drainage of this Butler County landscape. The settlement of Parkersburg serves as the primary hub, with its grid extending south toward the Parker Burial Grounds and west toward Oak Hill Cemetery. The infrastructure of the era is anchored by Railroad ST and the Parkersburg Post Office, reflecting a community connected by both rail and road.

Smaller outliers like Eleanor to the north and Buck Grove in the southwest corner illustrate the rural character of the region. Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of several local interment sites, such as Saint Patricks Catholic Cemetery and Salem Cemetery. The map also captures the path of South Beaver Creek as it meanders through the southern half of the quadrangle, punctuated by local roads like Ivy Ave and Keystone Ave.
