2014 Map of Saint Matthews

About this map

St. Matthews serves as the focal point of this Calhoun County landscape, where the intersection of Old State Rd and Saint Matthews Rd defines the local transport network. The area is characterized by a high density of named water features and agricultural lowlands, including the broad Buyck Bottom and the wetlands surrounding Dieks Swamp. Local history is reflected in the numerous family-named landmarks like Peter Buycks House Pond and Strickland Pond, suggesting a legacy of private land ownership and small-scale water management. Smaller communities such as Totness, Hammond Crossroads, and Wertz Crossroads anchor the surrounding rural space. Evidence of early industry and community infrastructure appears through Rileys Millpond and the W End Cem, while the modern landscape includes the Waste Stabilization Pond and Lake Inspiration.
