About this map

The Big Blue River snakes through this portion of Henry County, anchoring a landscape defined by small crossroads settlements and the western outskirts of New Castle. The significant Westwood Park reservoir dominates the central geography, surrounded by a dense network of county roads like S Greensboro Pike and N Sulphur Springs Rd that connect rural communities. Genealogists will find several notable burial sites throughout the townships, including South Mound Cem, Quaker Cem, and Hess Cem near the western border.

Agricultural patterns are punctuated by small aviation and transport nodes, such as Ferrell Airport and the rail corridors running alongside N Memorial Dr. From the northern village of Sulphur Springs down to Greensboro in the south, the map reveals a meticulously organized section of the Indiana interior. Named water features like Cadiz Run, Duck Cr, and Mount Lawn Brook illustrate the intricate drainage systems supporting the region's farms and the community at Mount Lawn.
