2018 Map of Dennison

About this map

Dennison and Weaver sit at the heart of this survey of the Illinois and Indiana borderlands, where the landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Sugar Creek and Crooked Creek. The terrain transitions from the upland settlements of Patton and McKeen in Clark County toward the low-lying wetlands of Chestnut Bayou along the Wabash River. Historical transportation routes are prominent, with the Old National Hwy and W National Ave cutting through the center of the sheet, providing a modern look at the path of the historic National Road. Genealogists will find a cluster of burial sites, including Dennison Cem, Farris Cem, and Cumberland Cem, which anchor the small rural communities and family homesteads that have persisted along the state line for generations.
