About this map

Sugar Creek flows through the southern reaches of this landscape, carving a deep path near the boundary of Fountain and Parke Counties. This waterway is a focal point for local engineering history, featuring notable spans like the Wilkins Mill Covered Bridge, Cox Ford Covered Bridge, and the Narrows Bridge. These structures represent a critical era of regional transport, crossing over the creek as it winds toward Rocky Hollow.

Away from the water, the settlement of Wallace sits in the northeast, while Grange Corner occupies a central position. The map is a valuable resource for genealogists, documenting several family-named burial grounds including Cashatt Cem, Zackmire Cem, and Nolen Cem. The northern terrain is further marked by the Hemlock Lakes and Wilson Airport, illustrating a landscape that balances small-town centers with a complex network of creeks like Sugar Mill Creek and Buffalo Cr.
