About this map

The Crown Center and Hall communities anchor this detailed topographic record of the rural borderlands between Morgan and Hendricks counties. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the drainage systems of Lake Ditch, Mud Creek, and Lambs Cr. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent agricultural character of the region, punctuated by private aviation sites like Winters Airport and Patrum Field.

Genealogists will find a concentration of local burial sites, from the centrally located Crown Center Cem to the Mount Pleasant Cem and Mount Zion Cem further south. The southern portion of the quadrangle rises toward the elevation of Shumaker Ridge, where the winding Gash Br and Snake Cr navigate the more varied terrain. The map meticulously documents the transition from the structured township grids to the natural drainage patterns that have shaped the local economy and settlement history for generations.
