2010 Map of Bunker Hill

About this map

The Wabash River and Mississinewa River define the northern reaches of this Miami County landscape, where the city of Peru and its neighbors South Peru and Park View Heights sit along the water. Moving south, the terrain is characterized by a dense network of agricultural ditches and creeks, including Pipe Creek and Little Pipe Creek, which influenced the placement of early settlements and family burial grounds. The map provides a detailed look at the rural road grid connecting small communities like Bunker Hill, Loree, and McGrawsville. Local history is preserved in the numerous named cemeteries such as Sharpee Cemetery, Crider Cemetery, and Leonda Cemetery that dot the countryside. Aviation interests are also represented by the presence of Weed Field Airport and the uniquely named Shinn Bone Lane Airport near the center of the quadrangle.
