New maps have been added to the Maps page. These includes Warren County maps featuring township lines and maps of Harlan Township from 1875, 1876, and 1903.
Maps are valuable tools for historians and researchers. Some of the things they can tell us:
• Where old houses stood
• Where schools and businesses were located
• The location of roads that no longer exist or were altered
• The owners of properties
• The original names of towns that were changed at some point
• The location of railroads that have been removed or convert to trails
Tip: When viewing a map on this site, there is a link in the lower right corner of the screen that will allow you to see the map full size. It will open the image in a new window. You can then use your computer’s or browser’s zoom function to get in close and explore.
