About this map

Patoka Lake dominates this 1980 survey, reflecting the significant landscape transformation following the impoundment of the Patoka River. The intricate, many-fingered shoreline of the reservoir reaches deep into the Hoosier National Forest, surrounding high points like Tillery Hill and Dumplin. While much of the terrain is dedicated to conservation and recreation, including the Springs Valley State Fish and Wildlife Area and Tillery Hill State Recreation Area, evidence of earlier rural life remains. The small settlement of Greenbrier sits north of the lake, while historical local centers are marked by the South Liberty Ch and McDonald Ch. Genealogists may find value in the location of the Patoka Mem Cem and other small Cem sites that survived the valley's flooding, providing a spatial record of the community before the water levels were raised to Elevation 536.
