1947 Map of Gosport

About this map

The White River meanders across the northern half of this landscape, anchoring the commercial hubs of Gosport and Romona. In the late 1940s, this region of central Indiana was defined by its transition from the river valley to the limestone-rich uplands of the south, where the settlement of Stinesville sits near Defeat Creek. The map provides exceptional detail for genealogists, documenting numerous rural landmarks such as Shiloh Ch, Old Dutch Ch, and Laymon Ch, along with the Chambersville Cem near Highets Corner.
