About this map

The White River winds through the heart of this Morgan County landscape, carving a wide valley flanked by prominent elevations like Blue Bluff and Barnard Hill. To the north, the terrain rises sharply into the distinctive Slaughterhouse Hill and Jakes Butte, while the residential growth of Martinsville expands toward the southeast. This 2016 survey captures the intricate local road network, including Old State RD 37 and Old Morgantown RD, which connect older nodes like Hyndsdale and Maxwell.

Genealogists will find a dense concentration of local burial sites, from Schultz Cem in the west to Williams Cem and Hill Dale Cem near the town center. The map also documents recreational and water management features such as Lake Edgewood, Spring Lake, and the Nutter Ditch, reflecting the managed hydrology of the river bottomlands. Industrial and aviation landmarks like Mc Daniel's Field and Champlin Meadows sit south of the city, providing a detailed record of land use in the early 21st century.
