About this map

The southern portion of Salem and the adjacent rural landscapes of Marion County are captured here in the early 2020s. This survey illustrates the transition from the city's residential streets, such as W Main St and S College St, to the agrarian expanses punctuated by numerous cemeteries and small water bodies. Genealogists may find value in the precise locations of historical burial grounds including Mount Moriah Cem, Romine Prairie Cem, and Paradise Cem.

The hydrography of the region is defined by the winding paths of Crooked Cr and its tributaries like Folks Cr, alongside smaller features such as Cartier Pond and Hecks Lake. The settlement of Selmaville sits to the west, while the smaller community of Cartter appears in the southeastern quadrant, connected by a network of county roads like Hotze Rd and Co Rd 1200 E that follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System.
