About this map

Patoka River and its intricate drainage system define the landscape of southeastern Orange County on this 2010 topographic survey. Small settlements and rural road networks connect the primary communities of Valeene and Bacon, showing the persistence of the area's agrarian roots. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, documenting several burial sites including the Little Africa Cemetery and Danners Cemetery near the northern boundary, as well as the Purkhiser Cemetery located south of the river.

Water features are prominent throughout the quadrangle, with Patoka Lake extending into the west and several named reservoirs like Sleepy Hollow Lake, Walton Lake, and Timberlin Lake dotting the terrain. The presence of descriptively named hollows such as Underwood Hollow and Bird Hollow indicates the undulating physical geography that has shaped local development and travel routes through the region.
