2019 Map of Francesville

About this map

Francesville sits in the northeastern corner of this landscape, a hub for agricultural transport where the grid of Co RD 1450 W meets the residential streets of W Yellow St and W Montgomery St. The terrain is characterized by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure, such as Jordan Ditch, Makeever Huff Ditch, and Slough Creek, which made large-scale farming possible in these low-lying plains. Further south, the settlement of Lee and the outskirts of Monon mark the lower boundary near the Pulaski and White County lines. Rural life is anchored by family and community landmarks, including the Osborne Cem and Nauvoo Cem, alongside local aviation sites like Culp Airport and Hallmark Airport. The map documents a strictly organized township and range system, where county roads follow Section lines through Jasper, Pulaski, and White Counties.
