About this map

The Wabash River and Little River converge in the southern reaches of this Huntington County landscape, defining the topography south of the city of Huntington. This 2010 survey illustrates a primarily agricultural region structured by a rigid grid of rural roads like W 1100 N and N Rangeline Rd. The drainage of this fertile land is managed through an extensive network of named waterways, including Carroll Ditch, Deemer Ditch, and Brown Ditch.

Small rural clusters such as Bippus, Makin, and Bracken serve as anchor points for the surrounding farmsteads. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local burial grounds, including Mount Hope Cemetery, Pilgrims Rest Cemetery, and the isolated Funk Cemetery to the northwest. The area is also marked by the winding path of Clear Creek, which meanders through the central and eastern sections of the quadrangle.
