2022 Map of Servia

About this map

Servia and Bippus anchor this survey of the Wabash-Huntington county line, where a complex network of agricultural drainage and creek systems defines the landscape. The terrain is crisscrossed by established rural routes, including the prominent Gene Stratton Porter Rd, which traverses several sections from north to south. Genealogists will find a significant distribution of small burial grounds tucked away in these sections, from Fairview Cem in the northwest to Allbright Cem in the southeast. Numerous waterways like Beargrass Cr, Paw Paw Cr, and Peabody Ditch illustrate the ongoing management of the local watershed. The placement of Concord Cem and Saint Johns Cem near these drainage systems suggests the long-standing integration of small rural communities with the local geography and hydrologic patterns of the region.
