1962 Map of Peabody SE

About this map

The Whitewater River and its tributaries, including Henry Creek and Dry Creek, define the drainage patterns of this rural landscape on the border of Marion and Butler Counties. In the early 1960s, the area maintained a predominantly agricultural character, punctuated by energy development in the Elbing Oil Field and localized extraction at various Oil Wells and a Gravel Pit. The transportation network is anchored by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad, which runs north-south through the western sections. Community life is represented by widely dispersed landmarks such as Countryside Sch and rural congregations at Fairplay Ch and Whitewater Center Ch. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved on these sections, including Fairmount Cem, Zion Cem, and Pleasant View Cem.
