About this map

Dogwood Lake serves as the centerpiece of this Southern Indiana landscape, surrounded by the extensive Glendale State Fish and Wildlife Area. The map reveals a rural structure defined by a strict grid of numeric roads, such as 400 South Road, punctuated by small settlements like Glendale and Hudsonville. The winding course of the White River and its East Fork carve the southern and western boundaries, where High Rock stands as a notable elevation above the riverbank.

Genealogists will find significant local-history data in the numerous country cemeteries and parish sites, including St Patricks Ch and its associated St Patricks-Glencoe Cem, as well as Ebenezer Cem and Public Cem. The transition from agrarian land to recreation is evident in the infrastructure around the lake, which includes a Fish Hatchery, Campground, and Boat Ramp amidst the older farms and creek drainages like Aikman Creek.
