About this map

The Monon railroad corridor serves as the primary industrial axis across this southern Indiana landscape, threading together the settlements of Leipsic, Saltillo, and Campbellsburg. To the north, the terrain is defined by the winding course of the East Fork White River, which carves deep meanders like the prominent Horseshoe Bend near the border of Guthrie. This 1970 revision captures a rural area organized by township lines, where small communities like Bono and Stonington anchor a network of country roads.

Local history and genealogy are preserved through numerous rural landmarks, including Fishing Creek Chapel and Carters Creek Ch. The map identifies several family and community burial sites, such as Mt Carmel Cem, Talbott Cem, and Freedom Cem. In the southern reaches, the Lost River and its subterranean drainage patterns hint at the region's unique karst topography, while industrial infrastructure is noted by several pipelines traversing the farmland.
