About this map

The First Principal Meridian serves as the dividing line between Indiana and Ohio in this detailed topographic record of the rural borderlands. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of numerous waterways, including Greenville Creek and Nolands Fork, which cut through the agricultural terrain of Green Sfork and Liberty townships. Small crossroads communities like Spartanburg and Crete dot the Indiana side, while Glen Karn and Hollansburg sit just across the state line in Ohio.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and historical sites, such as Beech Ch, Chapel Cem, and Bass Cem. The mapping of the Treaty Line Road highlights the early surveying history that shaped the region's property boundaries and road networks. This survey reflects a persistent rural character where drainage ditches like Elson Ditch and Wildcat Ditch have long managed the land for cultivation.
