About this map

Brownstown and Vallonia anchor this southern Indiana landscape, situated where the broad bottomlands of the East Fork White River meet the rising terrain of the Knobs. The region is defined by its sophisticated drainage network, with numerous man-made channels like Wayman Ditch and Singer Ditch cutting through the fertile lowlands. Local history is deeply etched into the countryside through a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, including Miller Cem, Burrell Cem, and the Sturgeon Cem near the eastern border.

South of the river, the terrain shifts significantly as it approaches the Jackson Co and Washington Co line. The Muscatatuck River meanders through the southern portion of the quadrangle, passing near the small settlement of Millport. Significant recreation and water management features such as Starve Hollow Lake and Lake Pyoca are prominent, while local landmarks like the Spurgeon School Rd hint at the rural civic infrastructure that has served these townships for generations.
