About this map

The Salamonie River winds through the northern portion of this landscape, anchoring the town of Pennville. This rural region of East Central Indiana is defined by a dense grid of county roads and an intricate network of drainage ditches—including Jones Ditch, Hudson Ditch, and Allman Ditch—reflecting the area's agricultural history and the systematic management of the watershed. Small rural hubs such as Trenton, Ridertown, and Converse dot the landscape, while the northern edge of Dunkirk appears in the south.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the numerous burial sites recorded here, such as Wayman Cem, Winters Cem, and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem. The presence of Mount Tabor Cem and Twin Hill Cem further illustrates the established community ties within the township divisions. The map also traces various small waterways like Big Lick Cr and Brooks Cr, which run alongside the county lines of Blackford and Jay counties.
