2011 Map of Elkinsville

About this map

Monroe Lake and its sprawling inlets dominate this portion of Brown County, where the valley of the Middle Fork Salt Creek meets complex ridges and hollows. The settlement of Elkinsville sits near the headwaters of the reservoir, adjacent to the Elkinsville Cemetery, while the small community of Maumee is positioned to the south near the Maumee Boy Scout Reservation. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, with named landforms like Browning Hill and Hickory Ridge rising above the water. Historical markers of the area's development are scattered throughout the hills, including the Hickory Ridge Lookout Tower and remote burial grounds such as Robinson Cemetery and Terrill Cemetery. This mapping shows the intricate network of ponds and minor branches, like Axsom Branch Pond and Hunter Creek Pond, which drain the heavily wooded Hoosier interior.
