2022 Map of Montgomery

About this map

Montgomery and Cannelburg serve as the primary focal points of this Daviess County landscape, situated along the corridor of Old US Highway 50. The town of Montgomery features the centrally located Saint Peters Cem, while the smaller settlement of Black Oak lies to the west, marking a historically rural residential cluster. The surrounding countryside is defined by an intricate network of drainage and water management systems, including Eagan Ditch and Oberls Ditch, which channel water toward larger bodies like Indian Rock Lake. Significant engineering works such as Prairie Cr Structure Number B-2-1 illustrate the ongoing infrastructure required to manage the many forks of Prairie Creek. Genealogists will find interest in localized landmarks like Stoll Cem in the northeast, preserving family names in a region otherwise dominated by a rigid grid of county roads and agricultural land.
