About this map

Dugger and the surrounding Sullivan County countryside appear here in a landscape deeply shaped by its industrial and agricultural history. The town of Cass lies to the northwest, while smaller settlements like Scotchtown, Stringtown, and Shiloh dot the grid of county roads. A distinctive feature of this area is the abundance of small family and community burial grounds, including Brodie Cem, Houck Cem, and Pirtle Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this part of Indiana.

The topography is marked by a complex water system and legacy mining features. The New Harmony Mine Pond and the extensive wetlands along Busseron Creek and Buttermilk Creek contrast with the higher ground where farms and homes are situated. To the south and east, features like Narrow Lake and Middle Fork Cr define the drainage patterns, while the dense network of numbered roads like N Co RD 300 E provides a clear view of the region's rural development and land use patterns in the late 2010s.
