1956 Map of Everton

About this map

Everton serves as the central hub of this mid-century agricultural landscape, situated at the junction of rural roads in eastern Indiana. The map preserves a detailed view of the rural township structure across Jackson and Jennings, marked by scattered farmsteads and small crossroads settlements like Alquina and Blooming Grove. One of the most significant historical markers shown is the Greenville Treaty Line, which slices diagonally through the terrain, reflecting the early 19th-century frontier boundary that shaped the original land surveys of the region. The drainage system is dominated by the East Fk Whitewater River on the eastern edge and winding waterways like Duck Creek and Village Creek. Local landmarks of genealogical interest include the Duck Creek Stone Chapel and several family or community burial grounds, such as Mt Garrison Cem and Poplar Ridge Cem.
