About this map

Yankeetown and the surrounding riverfront of Warrick County define this landscape along the Ohio River in the early 1980s. The region is marked by a complex industrial and rural transition, where extensive Strip Mine operations dominate the northern and eastern uplands, reshaping the terrain near Pelzer and Red Bush. Along the riverbanks, navigation infrastructure like the Newburgh Locks and Dam sits near Scuffletown, while older river settlements such as Vanada and Carlinburg remain across the state line. Genealogists will find several notable burial sites and rural institutions, including Hedges Cem and Bates Hill Cem, alongside country congregations like St Ruperts Ch and Pleasant Chapel. The Southern railroad line cuts through the center of the sheet, serving the coal and industrial interests that border the meandering path of Little Pigeon Creek.
