About this map

Big Walnut Creek and its many tributaries, including Lick Cr and Clear Cr, carve a complex drainage pattern across this section of the Indiana countryside where Montgomery, Putnam, and Hendricks counties meet. The landscape is dotted with long-established rural settlements like Barnard, New Maysville, and Groveland, which serve as anchors for a grid of county roads. Modern recreation and infrastructure are represented by the expansive Mccloud Nature Park and the Way West Airport.

Genealogists will find this 2022 survey particularly valuable for its density of burial sites. Small, family-named plots such as Abner Ragan Cem, Turner Farm Cem, and Vannice Cem are preserved alongside larger church-affiliated grounds like the North Salem Baptist Cem and New Winchester Baptist Cem. These locations, many tucked away on secondary roads like Hughes Rd or Co RD 550 N, provide a clear view of the area's ancestral settlement patterns.
