2010 Map of Paragon

About this map

Paragon sits at the heart of this Morgan County landscape, where the flatlands near the White River transition into a series of named elevations such as Goat Hill and Gallimore Hill. This 2010 survey reveals a community deeply rooted in its local history, evidenced by a high density of small family and community burial grounds including Mount Gilead Cemetery, Friendship Park Cemetery, and Ratts Cemetery. The settlement pattern is defined by traditional crossroads like Plano and Wakeland, connected by a grid of rural routes such as S Olive Church Rd and S Graveyard Rd. Water management is a visible priority across the terrain, with infrastructure like the Amy Lake Dam and Hren Lake Dam creating small reservoirs along the tributaries of Fall Creek and Burkhart Creek. In the southeast corner, the small settlement of Browns Crossing sits near the river, marking a point where the local transportation network meets the waterway.
