About this map

Sugar Creek winds through the heart of this landscape, marking the natural boundary between Johnson and Shelby counties. The area is defined by a dense network of drainage ditches and small runs, such as Cutsinger Ditch and Leatherwood Cr, which support the productive agricultural fields characteristic of central Indiana. Small rural clusters and unincorporated communities like Boggstown and Needham serve as local anchors, connected by a grid of county roads that follow the township and range lines.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by numerous family and community burial grounds, including Hough Cem, Webb Cem, and Wiles Cem, often located near these early settlements. The presence of small aviation strips like Cardinals Nest Airport and Gray Airport highlights the continued utility of the flat terrain for private transport. From the crossroad at Reds Corner to the village of Urmeyville, the map provides a precise account of the rural infrastructure and land use in the late 2010s.
