1971 Map of Pigeon Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Pigeon Creek and its numerous tributaries, including Hard Labor Creek and Deep Step Creek, define the topography of this rural stretch of Butler County. The landscape in the early 1970s was primarily agricultural and timber-oriented, anchored by a network of country churches and family cemeteries. Significant landmarks include Halso Mill and the Pigeon Creek Lookout Tower, the latter serving as a high-point sentinel over the surrounding forests. Genealogists will find a wealth of records in the placement of Mt Carmel Ch Cem, New Prospect Ch Cem, Ebenezer Cem, and Shiloh Cem. The area is characterized by small, dispersed community hubs like those found around Spring Hill Ch and Mt Olive East Ch, connected by unpaved roads and state routes that followed the drainage divides between Persimmon Creek and Hawkins Creek.
