1970 Map of Paragon

About this map

Paragon sits at the base of a series of prominent ridges, where the White River valley transitions into the elevated terrain of the Ashland and Ray townships. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, with numerous creeks like Burkhart Creek and Fall Creek cutting through the hills toward the river plain. The Penn Central railroad tracks run parallel to the river, serving as the primary industrial artery for small settlements like Whitaker and Browns Crossing.
