2013 Map of Carmine

About this map

Carmine serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated along a network of ranch-to-market roads and local lanes that define the agricultural character of Fayette County. The map details a transition from the rolling terrain near Homeymeyer Mtn and the White Bluffs to the various drainages that feed the local watershed, including Fourmile Cr and Cedar Cr. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites like the White Union Cem, Hartstack Cem, and Carmine Cem, which are scattered among family-named roads such as Lentz Meier Ln and Koether Rd. To the southwest, the Soil Conservation Service Site 7 Reservoir illustrates the modern infrastructure managing the many creeks that crisscross the prairie, including Alligator Cr and Buck Cr. The small community of La Bahia sits in the southeast corner, marking a site deeply tied to early regional travel routes.
