About this map

The Saint Joseph River meanders across the northwestern corner of this quadrangle, defining the local landscape near the settlements of Newville and Orangeville. This borderland region between Ohio and Indiana is characterized by a dense network of agricultural drainage systems, including Melissa Ditch, Tustison Creek, and Hook Ditch, which support the surrounding rural landscape. The town of Hicksville serves as the primary hub in the southeast, featuring the Hicksville Post Office and an organized street grid that contrasts with the long, straight county roads of the outlying townships.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several established burial grounds, such as Evergreen Cemetery, Riverside Cemetery, and Wartenbe Cemetery. The presence of Hilltop Airport and Hickory Hills Golf Course indicates how land use has evolved to include recreational and aviation infrastructure alongside traditional farming. This survey provides a clear view of the state line crossing at State Line Rd, showing the geographical relationship between Newville Center and the larger village of Hicksville.
