About this map

The industrial and residential growth of Huntington anchors the southwest corner of this Indiana landscape, where the US Hwy 24 Byp meets the city’s residential streets. Water dominates the drainage pattern, with the Little River flowing east through Bowerstown and toward Mahon, joined by numerous tributaries like Bull Creek and Cow Creek. This network of waterways is supplemented by man-made alterations including the McPherren Ditch, North Beck Ditch, and Fahl Ditch, illustrating the intensive management of the local watershed for agricultural and civil use.

Genealogists can identify several burial grounds situated throughout the rural townships, such as Union Cemetery in the north and Feighner Cemetery to the east. The map also captures recreation and local infrastructure through features like Timber Lake, the Huntington College Lake Dam, and the small The Wolf Den Airport located near Roanoke. This mix of established urban centers and rural family-named cemeteries reflects a region deeply rooted in its 19th-century settlement patterns even as it modernized.
