About this map

The Ohio River forms a dramatic eastern boundary for this portion of southern Indiana, as documented by topographic engineer Albert Pike and surveyor G. F. Westinghouse. The settlement of Bethlehem sits prominently on the riverbank, marking a transition between the fertile bottomlands and the dissected uplands of the interior. These interior plateaus are defined by a network of drainage systems like Fourteenmile Creek and Big Creek, where small rural communities like Otto, Marble Hill, and Paynesville are situated.
