2019 Map of Little York

About this map

Little York serves as a central hub in this southern Indiana landscape, where the agricultural flats of the north meet the more dissected, hollow-carved terrain to the south. The northern portion of the map is defined by drainage systems like the Muscatatuck River and Cammie Thomas Ditch, supporting rural settlements such as Pumpkin Center. Further south, the topography shifts significantly as the Knobstone Trail winds through a series of deeply etched drainages including Rutherford Hollow, Shantaky Hollow, and Dowling Hollow. This transition is marked by prominent high points like Vic Swaim Hill, providing a clear view of how the area's geography influenced the placement of early communities like New Philadelphia. Family history is preserved in sites such as Steep Hollow Cem and Riden Cem, while the Little York Airport indicates the modern utility of these rural Indiana uplands.
