2016 Map of Versailles

About this map

Versailles serves as a primary hub in this portion of Ripley County, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of Graham Creek and its many tributaries. The area maintains a traditional rural structure, with small settlements like Otter Village, Holton, and Dabney connected by a dense network of county roads. Genealogists can locate several family and community burial sites, including Otter Village Cem and Bradshaw Cem, which dot the uplands between the creek valleys. Evidence of the region's transport history is visible in the corridor of W Railroad Rd and the path of the Old Michigan Rd. Along the eastern edge, the Versailles State Park Dam represents a significant modern water management feature, while local aviation is represented by Francis Airport near Holton.
