About this map

Sugar Creek winds through the heart of the Indiana countryside, defining the border between Johnson Co and Shelby Co as it flows past the small community of Boggstown. This landscape is marked by a legacy of family settlement and rural industry, where small clusters of homes like Needham and Urmeyville anchor the local road network. The region’s history is preserved in its many small burial grounds, including the Boggstown Cem, Webb Cem, and Johnson Cem, which sit alongside active agricultural tracts.

Water management is central to the area's geography, evidenced by a dense network of drainage features such as Gibson Ditch, Cutsinger Ditch, and Shaw Ditch. This system of artificial and natural waterways supports the productive farmland surrounding Fairland and Reds Corner. Aviation also finds a place in this rural setting with private landing strips like Gray Airport and Cardinals Nest Airport integrated into the agrarian grid.
