1967 Map of Story

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Story and Elkinsville serve as primary anchors for this southern Indiana landscape, which is defined by the convergence of public lands and rugged township boundaries. The map illustrates a complex topography of ridges and hollows, including Bald Knobs and Hominy Mortar Ridge, that dictated the winding paths of the early road network. Evidence of local community life is preserved through numerous family and rural burial sites such as Moffitt Cem, Lutes Cem, and McKinney Cem, alongside the Mt Zion Ch near the northern border. This 1967 revision captures the area as the Monroe Lake reservoir began to influence the western terrain, contrasting the managed wilderness of the Hoosier National Forest and Yellowwood State Forest with the established crossroads at Christiansburg and Houston. The inclusion of the Old Indian Treaty Road provides a specific connection to the region's historical surveying and land division legacy.
