About this map

Veedersburg and Hillsboro anchor this rural Indiana landscape, where the agricultural grid is deeply etched into the Fountain County soil. The area is defined by the winding course of East Fork Coal Creek as it carves through the northern half of the quadrangle, while Prairie Creek and Mill Creek drain the southern farmlands. This 2010 survey reflects a settled geography where family and community legacy is preserved in numerous burial grounds such as Rose Hill Cemetery and Bonebrake Cemetery.

Smaller crossroads like Steam Corner, Centennial, and Wooley Corner illustrate the enduring pattern of decentralized rural settlements. The map details a transition from the structured residential blocks of Jillsboro to the outlying reaches of Buffalo Creek. For those studying local lineage, the high density of cemeteries, including Spring Hill Cemetery, Rock Field Cemetery, and Scotts Prairie Cemetery, offers significant landmarks for tracing family heritage within this stable Midwestern corridor.
