About this map

Sugar Creek and Sugar Mill Creek dominate this 2010 depiction of rural Fountain County, winding through a landscape defined by historic crossings and quiet settlements. The map highlights significant engineering from a bygone era, including the Wilkins Mill Covered Bridge and the Cox Ford Covered Bridge, alongside the Narrows Bridge at the Narrows. These landmarks, clustered near the Rocky Hollow terrain, signify the importance of water crossings in the region's historical development.

Small communities like Wallace and Grange Corner serve as anchors for the surrounding agricultural tracts. Family history is preserved through the locations of several burial grounds, including Nolen Cemetery, Zackmire Cemetery, and Cashatt Cemetery. From the Hemlock Lakes in the north to the Terre Haute Boys Club Lake Dam in the southeast, the map traces the intricate drainage of numerous branches and runs, such as Turkey Run and Wapalo Creek, which have shaped the local topography.
