2019 Map of Hillisburg

About this map

The small settlements of Hillisburg, Forest, and Scircleville anchor this portion of Clinton County, Indiana, just south of the Howard County line. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of drainage ditches and creeks, reflecting the area's agricultural development. Waterways such as S Fork Wildcat Cr, Kilmore Creek, and Sugar Cr traverse the township, often supplemented by engineered channels like Stump Ditch and Davis Ditch. For genealogists and local historians, the map is remarkably dense with burial sites. Numerous family and community landmarks are noted, including Old Liberty Cem, Prairie Chapel Cem, and Kings Corner Cem. These sites, scattered among the grid of county roads, preserve the names of the early families who settled the fertile plains between the branches of the Wildcat Creek.
