About this map

The town of Medaryville serves as the primary hub of this northwestern Indiana landscape, where the grid of modern agriculture is defined by an extensive drainage network. This intricate system of water management includes the Ryan Ditch, Stump Slough Ditch, and Gehring and Gumz Ditch, reflecting a long history of converting wetland into productive farmland. The area is dotted with small settlements like Asphaltum and Baileys Corner, while the presence of the Tatertown Airport and Alley Oop Airport suggests a reliance on small-scale aviation within this rural expanse.

Local genealogy and history are preserved in several community landmarks. Saint Marks Lutheran Cem and Saint Henrys Cem are located just northwest of the main town, while the more secluded Robinson Cem and Mason Cem further south provide markers of family lineage across the Jasper and Pulaski county line. The map captures a landscape defined by its engineered hydrology, from the Washburn Lateral to the Mosley Br, alongside established county roads that follow the township and range boundaries.
