About this map

The agricultural landscape of northern Daviess County is defined by a dense network of drainage systems such as Epsom Lateral and Findley Lateral that support the fertile plains between Elnora and Odon. This 2022 survey reveals a geography deeply tied to its rural heritage, where small settlements like Epsom and Cornettsville serve as local anchors. The map provides significant value for genealogists, documenting numerous family and community burial grounds including Talbotts Chapel Cem, Humphries Cem, and Ketchem Cem.

Water management is a central theme of this terrain, with the White River bordering the northwestern corner and various man-made channels like Thompson Ditch and Kane Ditch crisscrossing the section lines. The grid of county roads, such as Co RD 1400 N and Co RD 800 N, facilitates movement between established farms and landmarks like Wells Cem, preserving the spatial arrangement of this Indiana heartland.
