About this map

The town of Montgomery sits at the heart of this Daviess County landscape, reflecting the agricultural and water-management patterns of southwestern Indiana. This map details a region defined by an intricate network of waterways and drainage systems, including Bethel Ditch, Eagan Ditch, and Oberts Ditch, which support the surrounding farmland. The settlement of Cannelburg lies to the east, while Black Oak is situated to the west, connected by the corridor of Old Hwy 50.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the precise locations of Saint Peters Cem and Stoll Cem, the latter located in the northeastern corner of the sheet. The landscape is also marked by several water control structures along the prairie creeks, such as Prairie Cr Structure Number B-3-2, and recreation spots like Indian Rock Lake. The terrain transitions through various townships, including t3n r6w and t4n r5w, showing the enduring rural layout of the county.
