About this map

Camp Atterbury Military Reservation dominates the central portion of this landscape, a significant installation that includes the U S Army Hospital and the sobering Prisoner of War Cem in the north. The area shows a distinct contrast between the formal grid of the military reservation and the winding residential shorelines of Princes Lakes, Sweetwater Lake, and Cordry Lake.

Genealogists will find several family and church burial sites, including the Mt Mariah Cem near Mt Mariah and the Anderson Cem to the south. Historically, the map documents the Atterbury State Fish And Wildlife Area along the Blue River, while smaller settlements like Hamblen and Nineveh anchor the rural crossroads. The southern edge reaches the outskirts of Columbus, where Lick Creek and Muddy Branch drain the wooded terrain.
