About this map

Plainfield and its surrounding townships define this Central Indiana landscape, where the suburban expansion of Avon meets the established rural grids of Hendricks Co and Morgan Co. The corridor is anchored by the historic Old National Rd, while modern infrastructure is represented by the Hendricks County Airport-Gordon Graham Field and the recreational conversion of former transit lines into the Vandalia Rail-Trl.

Genealogists and local historians will find a dense concentration of burial sites, including the Maple Hill Cem, Sugar Grove Cem, and smaller family plots like Miles Cem and Irons Cem. The map traces the winding course of White Lick Creek and its many tributaries, which historically dictated the placement of early settlements such as Cartersburg, Belleville, and Joppa. Institutional history is marked by the presence of the Indiana Boys School, while the varied terrain is dotted with country houses of worship like Salem Methodist Cem.
