1905 Map of Newburg

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The Ohio River and Green River dominate this early 20th-century landscape, carving a complex network of wetlands and riverine settlements along the Indiana-Kentucky border. Near the confluence, the Evansville Suburban and Newburg R R terminates at Newburg, while the Louisville and St. Louis R. R. cuts across the lowlands through Beals and Reed. The terrain south of the Ohio is characterized by numerous sloughs and ponds, including Opossum Slough, Griffith Slough, and Big Arm Pond, illustrating the hydraulic character of the region before modern drainage and flood control altered the bottomlands.
