Geography

According to the 2010 census, the township had a total area of 97.2 square miles (252 km2), of which 91.64 square miles (237.3 km2) (or 94.28%) is land and 5.56 square miles (14.4 km2) (or 5.72%) is water.[3] Lakes in the township include Broad Pond (Gibson Lake), Burnett's Pond and Mauck's Pond. The Wabash River borders the northwest township line.

History

"Purty Old Tom" is noted by the historian Gil R. Stormont[6] as the origin of the name for the township, one of the original six created by the commissioners of the newly formed county in 1813. Thomas "Purty Old Tom" Montgomery came to southern Knox County in 1805 and marked an oak tree near a spring. Something delayed his return with his family to claim that land, so he ended up settling on the west bank of Black River near the present site of Owensville. He is mentioned on the Gibson County and Montgomery County, Kentucky page. He was one of seven sons of Hugh Montgomery Sr., of Virginia to fight in the Revolutionary War.[7]
