About this map

Dunkirk, Redkey, and Albany anchor this section of East Central Indiana, revealing a landscape defined by traditional agricultural blocks and the meandering path of the Mississinewa River. The river flows through the southern half of the quadrangle, joined by tributaries like Halfway Creek, Mud Creek, and Bush Creek. This 2010 survey highlights the organized rural infrastructure of Jay County, where a grid of county roads connects smaller settlements like Fairview and Shedville.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the specifically marked burial grounds, including Hillcrest Cemetery near Redkey and Strong Cemetery on the outskirts of Albany. A notable point of institutional land use is the Purdue University Agriculture Station, located in the southeastern quadrant. The map also traces various drainage features such as Rees Ditch and Redkey Run, which illustrate the managed hydrology required for the region's productive farmland.
