About this map

Hazel College and the surrounding farmsteads of western Boone County define this landscape as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map centers on the small settlement of Hazelrigg, a community situated between the larger hubs of Thorntown and Advance. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of agricultural drainages and creeks, including Little Sugar Creek, Wolf Creek, and Deer Creek, which reveal the intensive water management required for the region's productive farmland.

Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy road names like Serum Plant Rd and N Hazelrigg Rd, or locate family sites near Maple Lawn Cemetery in the northwest. The presence of Norman Lake and the engineered paths of Higgins Ditch and the Sanitary Ditch provide a detailed look at how the natural hydrology of the area was adapted for modern use. Small crossroads like Dover and Max illustrate the persistence of rural Indiana hamlets amidst a shifting suburban and agricultural landscape.
