About this map

The Great Miami River and Whitewater River converge in this tri-state corner, creating a complex landscape of floodplains and ridges where Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky meet. The river valley is a hub of transportation and history, featuring the Indiana & Ohio RR and the Central Railroad of Indiana as they navigate the lowlands near Valley Junction. A significant concentration of small family and community burial grounds, such as Minges Farm Cem and Elizabethtown Cem, offers deep genealogical value for the region.

High ground is marked by Harrison Hill and Georgetown Ridge, while the river itself holds landmarks like the Suspension Bridge and Long Island Beach. The map also captures the local aviation history at Lost Bridge Airport and the cultural significance of Harrisons Tomb near North Bend. This area reflects a dense pattern of settlement from established towns like Cleves and Harrison to the newer residential developments around Hidden Valley Lake.
