About this map

Clinton and its surrounding riverfront communities define the landscape along the western banks of the Wabash River in this detailed 2019 survey. The area exhibits a dense pattern of residential development and traditional grid-based towns including Fairview Park, Centenary, and Universal. The geography is characterized by the flat floodplain to the east, protected by the Lyford Dike and Levee Association Ditch, contrasting with the higher elevations to the west near Crompton Hill.

Genealogists will find a wealth of data across numerous burial grounds such as Walnut Grove Cemetery, Riverside Cemetery, and Helts Prairie Cemetery. Waterways like Brouilletts Creek and Norton Creek carve through the western townships, while smaller settlements like Sandytown, Klondyke, and Lyford remain distinct landmarks. The map documents the intricate local road network, from named city streets to the systematic county roads that connect these long-standing Vermillion County communities.
