About this map

Fayetteville and Bryantsville anchor the western reaches of Lawrence County in this 2016 survey, a landscape defined by the wide, winding course of the East Fork White River. The river creates significant geographical features like Gyger Bend and Horseshoe Bend, carving through the Mitchell Plain and the eastern edge of the Hoosier National Forest. The map captures a mix of rural crossroads and established residential pockets, including Coxton and Hartleyville.

Genealogical interest is well-served by the documentation of numerous small burial sites scattered throughout the terrain, such as Old Union Church Cem, Connelly Cem, and the Red Cross Cem near Tarry Park. Transport and infrastructure are represented by the Stumphole Bridge crossing the river and the industrial expansion on the southwestern edge of Bedford, where Industrial Park Dr and various residential streets meet the outlying farmland.
