2019 Map of Beechwood

About this map

The Hoosier National Forest covers much of this Southern Indiana landscape, where the Little Blue River and several of its tributaries, including the Stinking Fork and Mill Creek, carve through the terrain before reaching the Ohio River along the eastern and southern margins. This area is characterized by a high density of family and community burial grounds, such as Sheckell Cem, Bloom Riddle Cem, and the Old Chapel Cem, suggesting a long history of local settlement. Small communities like Sulphur, Beechwood, and Fredonia are connected by a network of rural roads such as Beechwood Rd and Alton Fredonia Rd, while the northern section is bisected by a major interstate corridor. The map provides a look at the rural character of Crawford and Perry counties, showing the proximity of settlements like Sulphur Springs to the forest boundary.
