About this map

The Tippecanoe River carves a winding path through this agricultural corridor on the border of Pulaski and White counties. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure, including the Rawn Ditch, Stout Ditch, and Ackerman Ditch, which support the surrounding farmsteads. Small residential clusters like Pulaski and Buffalo serve as local anchors, while the community of Headlee sits near the eastern edge of the survey area.

Genealogists and local researchers will find several well-preserved burial grounds, such as Saint Josephs Cem and Hoover Cem near the river, as well as Clark Cem further south. The map illustrates a meticulously gridded road system, with routes like Co Rd 400 S and E State Rd 16 connecting these rural townships. The presence of Indian Creek and various smaller tributaries like Dickey Cr highlights the intricate hydrology that has been managed for over a century to sustain the region's productivity.
