About this map

Everton and the surrounding rural crossroads of Fayette and Franklin counties are defined by a network of creeks and modern reservoir shorelines in this 2013 survey. The landscape is deeply carved by water, with Duck Cr and Ellys Cr draining the agricultural uplands toward the eastern reaches of the map. The influence of the Whitewater River valley is evident in the presence of Brookville Lake, which occupies the eastern edge near the small settlement of Quakertown.

Smaller hamlets like Alquina in the north and Pinhook and Blooming Grove in the south provide a record of local centers that have long served this farming region. The transition from established town sites to the recreational landscape of the lake highlights the dual nature of the region. Local researchers can trace numerous county roads such as E Alquina Rd and E Everton Rd that connect these dispersed communities across a terrain shaped by Wilson Cr and Village Cr.
