About this map

Colony serves as the primary hub of this Anderson County landscape, where the local grid of streets like E Broad St and E 4th St meets the rural road network. The town's historical presence is anchored by the Colony Cem located just south of the main settlement. The surrounding terrain is defined by the drainage of Deer Creek and its tributary Deer Cr, which carve gentle paths through the agricultural sections of the prairie.

A clear administrative boundary separates Anderson Co Allen Co across the lower third of the map. In the southern reaches, Pleasant Valley Cem stands near the intersection of W Virginia Rd and 2300th St, while the headwaters of Little Deer Cr flow toward the southeast. The survey highlights the transition from early township boundaries like t22s r19e to the modern rural road names that follow section lines, such as SW Maryland Rd and SW Kentucky Rd.
