2010 Map of Rosston

About this map

Whitestown and the surrounding rural communities of Boone County define this portion of the Indiana heartland as it appeared in the early 21st century. The landscape is heavily structured by its agricultural heritage, with an intricate network of drainage systems like Padgett Ditch, Lane Ditch, and Kemper Ditch supporting the surrounding fields. These watercourses converge toward Eagle Creek, which winds southward through the center of the quadrangle. Smaller settlements such as Gadsden and Rosston serve as historic nodes along the local roads, while the northern reaches include Waugh and Big Springs. Near the eastern boundary, Wurster Lake and the Wurster Lake Dam provide a break in the grid-like pattern of rural lanes. Local history is preserved in sites like Bethel Cemetery and Parr-Jones Cemetery, which mark the generational ties of the area's residents.
