About this map

The Wabash River carves a deep valley through this western Indiana landscape, serving as the historical boundary between Vermillion and Fountain Counties. The settlement of Perrysville sits prominently on the western bank, flanked by several smaller rural communities including Gessie, Flat Iron, and the namesake village of Coal Creek to the southeast. The agricultural character of the region is evident in the dense grid of county roads, such as W County Road 1150 N, which intersect numerous small watercourses like Jericho Creek and Jordan Creek.

Genealogists will find significant value in the mapped locations of several rural burial grounds, including Lower Mound Cemetery and Chenoweth Cemetery. The presence of Tree Spring and Collett Pond highlights the importance of natural water sources in the development of these townships. This survey provides a modern view of land usage and property divisions in the T19N and T18N ranges during the early twenty-first century.
