2019 Map of Pimento

About this map

Prairieton and the surrounding farm country of southern Vigo County are defined by a network of drainage ditches and slow-moving waterways like Honey Creek and McFarland Ditch. This 2019 survey captures the rural character of the landscape between Youngstown and the Sullivan County line, where long-standing community landmarks remain central to the geography. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including Prairieton Cem, Kester Cem, and Union Cem, as well as the First Prairie Creek Baptist Church. The topography reflects a mix of agricultural utility and recreational spaces, with the Elliott Woods Trail and Fowler Park Trails providing public access to the area's wooded pockets. Small private airstrips like Aero Plaines Airport and Shure Airport dot the fields, serving as modern identifiers for this well-established farming region.
