1965 Map of Hillham

About this map

The Lost River meanders through the heart of the Hoosier National Forest in this mid-century look at the borderlands of Orange, Martin, and Dubois counties. The terrain is defined by complex ridges like Pheasant Farm Ridge and Emmons Ridge, where small family cemeteries and remote churches, such as Hawkins Cem and New Antioch Ch & Cem, dot the high ground above the narrow valley floors. To the southeast, the famous resort town of French Lick is visible, adjacent to a Golf Course and the French Lick Municipal Airport. This area's transition from limestone extraction at the Red Quarry to a recreational and conservation landscape is evident. Further south, the Southern railroad line cuts through the topography, utilizing the Burton Tunnel near the settlement of Hillham, illustrating the engineering required to navigate this portion of southern Indiana.
