1958 Map of Clarksburg

About this map

Clarksburg anchors this southeastern Indiana landscape, where the agricultural plains of Richland and Fugit townships meet the dissected valleys of the Salt Creek drainage system. A significant shift in the terrain is marked by the presence of Lake Santee, a large man-made reservoir that dominates the southern portion of the map, fed by the Right hand Fork and the Bull Fork. While the western half of the map features a regular grid of rural roads and homesteads, the eastern side follows the winding courses of the South Fork Salt Creek and Little Salt Creek, where topography becomes more complex.
