1960 Map of Wren

About this map

The St Marys River winds through the borderlands of Indiana and Ohio, anchoring a mid-century landscape of agricultural grid roads and small-town junctions. At Pleasant Mills, the river is crossed by a notable Covered Bridge, while the Erie Lackawanna and New York Chicago and St Louis railroads define the industrial corridors of the era. The settlement of Wren and the village of Willshire serve as local centers, surrounded by a network of rural landmarks that provide significant value for genealogical research.
