About this map

Washington serves as the focal point of this Daviess County landscape, showing the city's residential and commercial grid as it existed in 2016. The map documents the relationship between the urban center and its outlying hamlets like Maysville, Jordan, and Graham. The local infrastructure is defined by a blend of old and new, from the CSX Transportation rail corridor to the Daviess County Airport.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved across the township, including Saint Johns Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and Colbert Cem. The natural drainage of the region is traced through Hawkins Cr and the White River, which forms a significant portion of the western boundary against Knox Co. Significant elevation markers such as Toms Hill and Sefert Hill contrast with the agricultural lowlands of Prairie Creek and the various drainage ditches that have modified the terrain over time.
