About this map

Monroe Lake dominates the central landscape of this Brown County region, where the waters of the Middle Fork Salt Creek and South Fork Salt Creek converge. The topography is defined by a dense network of ridges and hollows, including Miller Ridge, Deckard Ridge, and Hickory Ridge, much of which is preserved within the Hoosier National Forest. The small settlement of Elkinsville sits near the eastern edge of the reservoir, served by Elkinsville Cemetery Rd and situated just north of the prominent Browning Hill.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several family and community landmarks, such as the Elkinsville Cem, Terrill Cem, and Robertson Cem. Further south, the settlement of Maumee lies near the banks of Combs Cr. The map details an extensive trail system, including the Tecuseh Trail and several horse trails, illustrating the area's transition into a major recreational corridor within the national forest system.
