2010 Map of Ashley

About this map

Ashley and Hudson anchor the southern corridor of this Indiana landscape, where the local economy and settlement patterns are defined by a complex network of glacial lakes and drainage ditches. The area around Pleasant Lake shows a cluster of activity including the Myers Rait and Fish Hatchery and Pleasant Lake Cemetery. Further north, smaller settlements like Moonlight and Steubenville appear alongside notable water bodies such as Golden Lake, Hogback Lake, and Johnson Lake. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds, including Barkers Chapel Cemetery, Circle Cemetery, and Mount Zion Cemetery, which mark early family and community centers. The infrastructure is characterized by modern transit through S Interstate 69 cutting through a terrain shaped by agriculture and water management, evidenced by features like Smathers Ditch and Conrad Ditch.
