1970 Map of Dunreith

About this map

National Road and the Conrail line intersect at Dunreith, a key junction in this central Indiana landscape. To the north, the town of Spiceland is surrounded by agricultural plots and industrial markers like Stone Quarry Mills and various Gravel Pits. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Blue River and several smaller tributaries including Buck Creek and Duck Creek. Family-named cemeteries such as Mason Cem and Hickside Cem are scattered across the townships, providing significant data points for genealogical research. The map also documents mid-century cultural features like a Drive-in Theater near the Norfolk and Western tracks and a Gas Well in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Regional transport is highlighted by historic routes like Old Spiceland Road and the Old National Road, which predate the more modern highway infrastructure shown passing through the area.
