About this map

The East Fork White River and Muscatatuck River define the southern and eastern reaches of this landscape, carving through a series of named hollows and ridges. This 2010 topographic record highlights the complex local geography where Steward Hollow, Carr Hollow, and Wheeler Hollow meet the river bottoms. The settlement of Medora sits as a central hub, surrounded by smaller communities such as Sparksville and Weddeville.

Family history is deeply etched into the terrain through a high concentration of burial grounds, including the Hinderlider Cemetery, Shoemaker Cemetery, and Heighton Hill Cemetery. The mapping of small local roads like Sparks Ferry Rd and Brick Plant Rd suggests the enduring industrial and transit patterns of the region, while the northern uplands are marked by the Knobs Overlook and Byarlay Knob.
