About this map

Knightstown and its eastern neighbor Raysville anchor this portion of Henry County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Big Blue River and a dense network of agricultural roads. The town's grid is preserved in detail, featuring landmarks like W Old National Rd, reflecting its position on a primary historical corridor. To the south, the terrain opens into the rural reach of Sulphur Spring and the drainage of Threemile Cr, while the northern portion of the quadrangle is marked by smaller farming communities like Maple Valley and Grant City.

A cluster of aviation sites, including Willcox Airport and Wallace Field Airport, suggests a legacy of local private flight integrated into the rural farmsteads. Smaller water features such as Montgomery Cr, Goose Cr, and Charlottes Brook drain the gently undulating land between the larger settlements of Knox and Charlottesville, providing a clear view of the mid-20th-century drainage and land-use patterns across the Indiana plains.
