2016 Map of Fairbanks

About this map

The Wabash River carves a deep boundary between Indiana and Illinois in this 2016 survey, defining the western edge of Sullivan County. Along the river's eastern banks, the small settlement of Riverview sits near the winding waterway, while the township hub of Fairbanks occupies higher ground to the east. The landscape is deeply tied to its rural heritage, as evidenced by several family and community burial sites like DeBaun Cem, Riggs-Ernest Cem, and Walnut Prairie Cem. Significant hydrological features like Turman Creek, Kelley Bayou, and Prairie Creek drain the surrounding agricultural lands toward the Wabash.
