About this map

The Flatrock River and its numerous tributaries, including the Little Flatrock River and Hurricane Cr, dominate this agricultural landscape in southeastern Indiana. The map centers on a series of small, traditional crossroads settlements that have served as local hubs for generations. Moscow sits near the northern boundary where the river bends, while Saint Omer and Adams are positioned along the primary southeast-northwest transit corridor that cuts through the township.

A network of drainage features like Apple Ditch and Pond Br highlights the managed nature of the hydrology, essential for the surrounding farmland. The settlement of Downeyville appears as a quiet residential cluster between the river systems. This survey reflects the enduring rural character of the region, where historical naming conventions are preserved in the creek branches and the gridded road system that connects these distinct communities.
