2010 Map of Michigantown

About this map

Michigantown and the eastern outskirts of Frankfort anchor this 2010 survey of central Indiana farmland. The landscape is defined by a dense grid of rural roads and the diagonal path of Washington Ave, which cuts across the township towards Boyleston. This area is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting numerous small burial grounds such as Old Whiteman Cemetery, Hopewell Cemeteries, and Layman Cemetery that dot the agricultural parcels between Kilmore Creek and Campbells Run. Smaller residential clusters like Avery, Beard, and the neighborhoods of Kentwood and Wilshire provide a detailed view of local settlement patterns at the start of the 21st century. The map also traces a series of drainage systems essential to the region's farming, including Jenkins Ditch and Talbert Ditch, which channel water through the flat terrain toward larger tributaries.
