About this map

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor serves as the primary artery through this section of the Martin State Forest and Hoosier National Forest. Centered on the settlement of Huron, the landscape is defined by the sharp meanders of the White River, featuring dramatic topographic landmarks like Norman Rock Bend and Devils Elbow. The map captures a rural Indiana community structured around the intersection of the railway and watercourses such as Beaver Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the distribution of family-named sites and rural institutions. The sheet identifies several religious and burial sites, including the Willow Valley Ch, Welsbach Ch, and Brunner Cem. Smaller locales like Willow Valley and Bonds are situated among the intricate drainage of the South Fork and Big Creek, offering a precise view of Southern Indiana’s upland topography and timberlands in the late twentieth century.
