2016 Map of Bristow

About this map

The Middle Fork Anderson River and its numerous tributaries, including Sigler Cr, Tige Cr, and Sulphur Fork Cr, define the drainage patterns of this Perry County landscape. Within the protected boundaries of the Hoosier National Forest, several recreational water bodies are prominent, such as Tipsaw Lake, Lake Celina, and Indian Lake. The map reveals a high density of small family and community burial grounds, which are vital for genealogical research in this part of Indiana. Notable examples include the Fox Ridge Cem near the northern border, Underhill Cem, and the Mount Pleasant Cem. Settlements like Bristow, Sassafras, Siberia, and Uniontown are connected by a network of rural roads such as Bristow Rd and S Indian Lake Rd, while the Tipsaw Trail 1 and Two Lakes Trail suggest the area's modern use for outdoor recreation.
