About this map

Carmine serves as the focal point of this survey, situated at the boundary where Washington and Fayette counties meet. The settlement pattern is defined by a dense network of family-named roads and landmarks, reflecting a deep-rooted rural community. To the north and east, the landscape is punctuated by Homeymeyer Mtn and the White Bluffs, with drainage provided by the winding Cedar Cr and its tributaries like Fourmile Cr.

For family history researchers, this map is particularly dense with small burial grounds, including the Loewe Family Cem, Derrick Family Cem, and the notable La Bahia Cem. The presence of numerous smaller roads like Old Loewe Ln, Lentz Meier Ln, and Harmon School Rd suggests the historical locations of farmsteads and rural schoolhouses. These features, along with localized landmarks like Schoenberg Lake and Moye Lake, provide a detailed record of the area's geography and land ownership.
