2016 Map of New Madison

About this map

New Madison and its neighboring villages sit within a landscape defined by the agricultural drainage of the E Fork Whitewater River and several small tributaries like Price Cr and Mud Cr. This 2016 survey shows a pattern of rural settlement typical of Darke and Preble counties, where small crossroads communities like Otterbein, Castine, and Hamburg are anchored by family cemeteries and country churches. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations such as the Hills of Judea in the north and several small water bodies including Halls Lake and the Lake Br Ditch. Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks, from the First Universalist Ch in the heart of town to numerous burial sites such as Greenmound Cem, Harter Cem, and Wilt Cem, providing a clear record of the area's established family footprints.
