About this map

The Mississinewa River winds across the southern half of this landscape, anchoring the settlement of Ridgeville. This section of Indiana is characterized by a dense network of agricultural drainages and small creeks, including Days Creek, Flesher Creek, and Bear Creek, which reveal the intensive water management of the region's farmland. Small, unincorporated communities such as New Mount Pleasant, Powers, and Collett serve as local hubs for the surrounding rural territory.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites, ranging from the large Riverside Cemetery and Odd Fellows Cemetery near the river to smaller, isolated family or community grounds like Wentz Cemetery, Bost Cemetery, and Powers Cemetery. Aviation history is represented by the Windy P Ridge Airport located in the eastern portion of the survey area, while the road network is punctuated by historically named routes such as S Como Rd and S Mount Pleasant Rd.
