2018 Map of Carmi

About this map

The Little Wabash River winds through the heart of White County, anchoring the regional landscape and the development of Carmi. This survey reveals a dense concentration of local heritage sites, particularly around the city center where The Old Graveyard and Dawn of Ages Memorial Park reside. The surrounding rural townships are characterized by a high frequency of family-named burial grounds, such as the Newman Family Cem, Saunders Family Cem, and Holderby Family Cem, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research. Transportation patterns are defined by the grid of county roads and the rail line passing through Bingman Station. To the south, the terrain follows the meanders of Grindstone Cr and Elanders Cr, while numerous small lakes like Absher Lake and Griffith Lake dot the lowlands adjacent to the river.
