2019 Map of Brownsville

About this map

Whitewater River and its forks define the drainage of this East Central Indiana landscape, where the borders of Wayne, Fayette, and Union counties converge. Small agricultural settlements like Waterloo and Philomath anchor the northern reaches, while the southeastern corner is dominated by the course of the East Fork Whitewater River near Brownsville. The area exhibits a dense network of country roads following the township and range lines, connecting numerous local burial grounds including Union Cem, Village Creek Cem, and Robinson Chapel Cem. On the western edge, the outskirts of Connersville appear, featuring the Shrine of Memories Mausoleum. This 2019 survey documents the enduring rural character of the region, where waterways like Nolands Fork and Simpson Cr continue to shape the placement of historic farmsteads and small communities like Lyonsville and Springersville.
