About this map

Neeper sits at the heart of this Clark County landscape, where the rural character is defined by a dense network of waterways including the Wyaconda River and the Little Wyaconda River. The mapping shows a long-established agricultural community, evidenced by the presence of several legacy education sites like Union School, Pleasant Hill School, and Liberty School.

Genealogists will find particular value in the documentation of local burial grounds, such as the Schuster Cemetery and the Old German Cemetery in the northern reaches, as well as the Carlin Cemetery near Sugar Creek in the south. The terrain is marked by numerous small impoundments, including Steinmann Lake Dam, Ebeline Lake Dam, and Brewer Lake Dam, reflecting the local management of the area's many tributaries like Foree Branch and Hickory Creek. The southern boundary touches the North Fabius River, completing a picture of a region deeply tied to its river systems.
