2019 Map of Lebanon East

About this map

Lebanon serves as the focal point of this Marion County landscape, situated where the urban grid meets the deeply dissected hills of the Knobs region. The terrain to the south and east is defined by winding drainage patterns like Turkey Pen Hollow and Rogue Hollow, where local family history is anchored by sites such as Saint Ivos Cem and Tatum Cem. This modern topographic survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the area, punctuated by the waters of Fagan Branch Reservoir and Marion County Lake. Land use patterns are clearly visible through the naming of long-established thoroughfares such as Helm School House Rd and Short Line Pike, which connect the settlement at Penick to the county seat. The map provides a detailed view of the complex hydrography feeding the Rolling Fork, showing how the creek valleys and ridges like Putnam Knob have dictated the local road network and settlement patterns for generations.
