About this map

The monastic and educational center of Saint Meinrad anchor this landscape at the intersection of Dubois, Perry, and Spencer counties. This area is characterized by the Anderson River and its numerous tributaries, including Blackhawk Cr and Crooks Hollow Cr, which carve through the terrain near the Saint Meinrad Sch of Theology. The map reveals a pattern of rural life organized around small water bodies and family legacy sites, such as Saint Meinrad Lake and several ancestral burial grounds including Taylor Cem and Stapleton Cem.

Industrial and municipal footprints are evident in the Felmont Oil Company Reservoir and the Ferdinand Water Supply Reservoir, supporting the nearby town of Ferdinand. The drainage network, featuring named local features like Monkey Hollow Ditch and Swinging Cr, illustrates the hydrological management required in this southern Indiana topography, where small settlements like Adyeville remain connected by a dense web of county roads.
