1968 Map of Lewis Creek
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
Flatrock River and the Big Blue River define the northern and southern reaches of this central Indiana landscape, which reflects a late-1960s snapshot of rural Shelby County. The drainage network is particularly dense here, where Slash Creek and the various forks of Lewis Creek cut through the farmland. The settlement pattern is characterized by small rural nodes like Smithland, Fenns, and Wilson Corner, connected by a grid of county roads and the Penn Central rail line. Genealogists will find several family-named burial grounds across the townships, including Miller Cem and Tindall Cem. The presence of the County Home near the Township Sch indicates the local social infrastructure of the mid-twentieth century, while the prominent McFarren Hill and McCrea Hill stand as distinct markers in an otherwise level agricultural region.
