2016 Map of Morristown

About this map

Morristown sits at the heart of this Indiana agricultural landscape, where the east-west corridor of Main St connects it to the neighboring settlement of Gwynneville. The Big Blue River meanders through the western half of the terrain, carving a distinct valley near Freeport and the prominent elevation known as Hog Back. This 2016 survey captures the rural character of the Shelby and Hancock County border, defined by a rectilinear grid of gravel and paved roads like S Morristown Pike and S Binford Rd. Genealogists will find several small burial grounds across the farmland, including Asbury Cem and Haskett Cem. The local aviation history is represented by the Willis Airport and its secondary site. Tributaries such as Sixmile Creek, Prairie Run, and Cotton Run create a dense drainage network that continues to shape the local land use and farm boundaries.
