About this map

The Little Vermilion River meanders across this landscape in southeastern Vermilion County, passing just south of Georgetown. This survey illustrates a cluster of long-established communities including Indianola, Vermilion Grove, Olivet, and Ridge Farm. The area is characterized by a dense network of country roads such as Georgetown - Indianola Rd and Co Rd 900 N, connecting small hamlets like Busenville and Mabel.

For local historians and genealogists, the map provides an exceptional record of family and community burial sites. Numerous grounds are documented, from the Crown Hill Cem near the southern border with the Vermilion Co Edgar Co line to more isolated locations like Sandusky Cem and Michael Cem. The hydrology of the region is well-defined by the Georgetown Reservoir and the drainage patterns of Crabapple Cr and Fayette Drain.
