2022 Map of Hayden

About this map

The Vernon Fork Muscatatuck River meanders through this Jennings County landscape, creating a complex drainage network defined by tributaries like Sixmile Cr, Indian Cr, and Coffee Cr. The settlement pattern is characterized by small rural clusters such as Hayden, Four Corners, and Lovett, while the northern edge touches the outskirts of North Vernon. A high concentration of family and community burial grounds, including Whitcomb Cem, Stewart Cem, and German Cem, are situated on the elevated ground between the river's many forks and branches. This distribution of cemeteries alongside a dense grid of county roads—such as W Co Rd 200 S and N Co Rd 750 W—highlights a long-established agricultural community where local history is deeply tied to the specific topography of the Muscatatuck River basin.
