2013 Map of Rexville

About this map

Jefferson Proving Ground dominates the western edge of this landscape, its boundary marking a transition from rural farmland to a specialized military installation. The surrounding countryside is defined by the branching tributaries of Indian Kentuck Cr and Big Cr, which carve through the terrain to create distinctive elevations like Bates Ridge and Hicks Ridge. Small, localized settlements such as Rexville, Barbersville, and Haney Corner anchor a dense grid of country roads, reflecting the established agricultural patterns of southeastern Indiana. The presence of the Old Michigan Rd provides a historical link to early frontier transit, while the convergence of smaller watercourses like Vestal Br and Little Graham Cr underscores the creek-bottom geography that dictated early farmstead placement and community development in the region.
