About this map

Sulphur Springs anchors this agricultural landscape in Henry County, where small rural hubs are connected by a rigorous grid of section-line roads. The area is defined by its numerous small drainage systems, including Sulphur Drain and Fall Creek, which reveal the naturally undulating topography of the region. Local history is deeply embedded in the land through family and community cemeteries such as Sunderland Cemetery and Bethel Cemetery, often located near crossroads or subtle stream bends.

Settlement patterns follow the established railway corridors, with Springport and Mount Summit serving as focal points in the southeast, while Cowan and Oakville line the northern and eastern peripheries. This 2010 survey illustrates the persistence of these small Indiana towns and their relationship to the surrounding farmland, showing how modern county roads like W Co RD 800 N continue to follow the historical surveying lines established over a century ago.
