About this map

Penney Farms serves as the focal point of this Clay County landscape, appearing here in a survey based on late 1940s field checks with 1970s photographic revisions. The map details the planned character of the community, highlighting the Memorial Homes complex and the Penney Farms Sch at the center of the local grid. Surrounding the town, the terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including the winding Black Creek South Fork, Greens Creek, and Peters Creek.

Evidence of early aviation and agricultural infrastructure is visible in the Penney Farms Landing Field (Aban'd) and a scattered array of landmarks such as a Silo and multiple Water Tanks. The map also captures the Pass Station along the northern rail line, illustrating the transportation links that connected this community to the broader region before many local changes were photo-inspected in the mid-1970s.
