2016 Map of Bloomfield

About this map

The White River and its accompanying wetlands dominate this Greene County landscape, creating a broad, low-lying corridor between Worthington and Bloomfield. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent importance of the river valley, where land use is dictated by the floodplains of Lattas Creek and Sloan Ditch. In the north, Point Commerce sits at the confluence of the river and Eel River, marking a site of early pioneer significance. On the higher ground east of the valley, the terrain becomes more dissected by drainages like Richland Creek and Wildcat Br, supporting smaller settlements such as Calvertville and Tulip. Genealogy researchers will find numerous rural burial grounds, including Stalcup Cem and Bucher Cem, preserved alongside the infrastructure of the Indiana Rail Road. The topographic data also highlights notable physical landmarks like Fairplay Mound and Persimmon Ridge, which rise above the surrounding bottomlands and rolling hills.
