About this map

The town of Versailles and its surrounding rural Ripley County landscape are defined by a complex drainage network that flows toward the Versailles State Park Dam. A series of small settlements, including Otter Village, Dabney, and Correct, are connected by a grid of county roads and the historic path of N Old Michigan Rd. The southern portion of the area features distinctive terrain and water features such as Hungry Hollow and Coon Hollow near the winding course of Graham Cr.

Regional transportation is centered on the junction of Highway 421 and Highway 50, which meet in the heart of Versailles. To the west, the landscape transitions to more isolated hamlets like New Marion and industrial or infrastructure markers such as Francis Airport and the W Railroad Rd corridor. This 2013 survey provides a contemporary perspective on a region that maintains its agricultural character while preserving its historical place names.
