USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
White River meanders sharply through the floodplain of southwest Indiana, defining the shifting boundary between Knox and Daviess counties. This 1940s-era landscape is characterized by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure designed to reclaim the low-lying terrain, including the Smothers Creek Cutoff and several named ditches like Armuth Ditch and Killion Ditch. The town of Plainville serves as a primary hub in the east, while Westphalia sits along the northern edge, both connected by early regional transport lines.
