About this map

Corydon and Poole anchor the northern and southern reaches of this landscape, where the borders of Henderson, Union, and Webster Counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of small waterways, including Beaverdam Cr and Highland Cr, which have historically shaped the settlement patterns and road layouts of the region.

Genealogists will find a significant distribution of family burial sites across the countryside, such as Hughes Cem, Morehead Cem, and Tapp Cem. These landmarks, along with small community centers like Dixie and Tunnel Hill, illustrate the rural social fabric that persisted into the early 21st century. The map also highlights established drainage features like Barrett Ditch, showing how the land has been managed for agriculture and habitation over generations.
