USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The White River and Patoka River dominate this Southwestern Indiana landscape, where the confluence of major waterways and rail lines shaped the development of Gibson and Knox counties. The Chicago and Eastern Illinois railroad runs north-south through the village of Patoka, connecting it to the larger town of Hazleton near the river's bend. Low-lying river bottomlands are protected by the Brevoort Levee and levee systems, while higher ground like Bald Hill provided stable sites for early rural institutions.
