2016 Map of Arney

About this map

Arney and the surrounding rural landscapes of the Indiana heartland are documented here, situated along the county line between Owen Co and Greene Co. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major waterways, where the Eel River meets the White River near the historic site of Point Commerce. This area, once a significant river landing and pioneer crossroads, retains much of its original agricultural character, with topography rising from the river bottoms to elevated points like Dillon Hill and Kelley Ridge. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several scattered burial grounds, including the Fiscus Cemetary in the north and Griffith Cem near the river junction. The road network, largely following section lines and historic paths like the Steubenville-Amey Rd, connects smaller clusters such as Farmers and Need Hill, illustrating the enduring settlement patterns of rural Indiana.
