About this map

Jasonville serves as the central hub of this Greene County landscape, where the grid of city streets transitions into the rural outskirts of Coalmont and Howesville. The terrain is significantly defined by hydraulic engineering and early industrial transport, most notably the historic route of the Wabash and Erie Canal which cuts diagonally across the northeastern quadrant near the Eel River. To the west, the man-made shoreline of Lake Shakamak and Lake Lenape suggests a landscape repurposed for recreation and water management, complete with structures like the Shakamak Lake Dam.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several family and community landmarks, including Sanders Cemetery and Old Union Cemetery. Small named crossroads such as Buchanan Corner, Bogle Corner, and Redcuff Corner anchor the township's agricultural sections. The map also documents the Shakamak Airport and the sprawling rail-related infrastructure of Latta Yard, indicating the region's historical reliance on diverse transportation networks.
