1961 Map of Pine Village

About this map

Big Pine Creek and its tributary Mud Creek dominate this central Warren County landscape, winding through a patchwork of agricultural fields and woodlots. The village of Pine Village serves as the primary hub in the northeast, while smaller clusters like Rainsville and Hooker Corner anchor the rural crossroads. This 1961 field-checked survey preserves the intricate distribution of family-named burial grounds that dot the prairie and creek bluffs, including Smith Cem, Jones Cem, and Van Reed Cem. The mapping of fine red dashed lines indicating fence and field lines, updated from 1976 aerial photography, provides a clear view of land use and property boundaries during the mid-to-late 20th century. Notable local landmarks like the Rocky Ford crossing and the small settlement of Brisco reflect the historical reliance on these waterways for early transport and community organization.
