About this map

Odon and its neighboring rural settlements anchor this landscape in Daviess County, where the agricultural grid meets the winding courses of the North Fork Prairie Creek and Seed Tick Creek. The map documents a cluster of small crossroads communities including Raglesville, Farlen, Bramble, and Burns City, each connected by a network of county roads. Local history and genealogy are preserved in the numerous burial sites across the township, such as Walnut Hill Cemetery on the outskirts of Odon and the more remote Kilgore Cemetery.

Water management and conservation efforts are clearly marked through specific infrastructure like the Prairie Creek Dam Number A-3-1 and the Soil and Water Conservancy District Dam near Seed Tick Lake. These features, along with the distinct rise of Pigeon Ridge in the east, illustrate the intersection of the natural drainage systems of West Boggs Creek and First Creek with modern engineering designed to support the region's farming economy.
