2022 Map of Duncombe

About this map

Duncombe and the surrounding agricultural landscape of eastern Webster County are defined by a precision grid of section roads and the winding path of Brushy Creek. This 2022 survey captures the community and the nearby grain-handling site of Highview, situated along the county line shared with Hamilton County. For those researching local families, the map identifies several distinct burial grounds, including Saint Josephs Cem, Washington Township Cem, and Washington Cem, along with the more uniquely named Ober and Scott Cem in the southern portion of the quadrangle. The terrain transitions from the flat upland fields to the more varied topography surrounding the creek, where recreational pathways like the Big Rock Trl and Campground Trl indicate modern land use. The presence of Stagecoach Rd north of the highway suggests older transit corridors that predated the modern highway system, providing a link between contemporary infrastructure and the area's pioneer-era routing.
