About this map

The Wabash River and White River converge at the southeastern corner of this Illinois-Indiana border region, where Patoka Island and Burnet Pond mark the low-lying fluvial landscape. The urban center of Mount Carmel is documented in detail, showing the campus of Wabash Valley College and a dense network of local streets. Outside the city, the landscape is defined by agricultural lands and small settlements like Maud, Patton, and Schrodts Station.

Genealogists will find an extensive record of burial sites, ranging from larger grounds like Highland Memorial Cem and Rose Hill Cem to smaller family and potter’s fields. Notable sites include the Woods Family Cem, Potters Field Cem, and Lingenfelter Cem. Aviation and recreation are represented by the Beckerman Field Airport and Conservation Lake, while several creeks such as Fordice Cr and Greathouse Cr drain the surrounding countryside.
