2010 Map of Westport

About this map

Westport serves as the central hub of this Decatur County landscape, where the confluence of several vital waterways shaped the early layout of the region. The town is situated near the meeting point of Sand Creek and Millstone Creek, a geographic orientation that supported the community's growth. To the north, the smaller settlements of Letts and Letts Corner are established within a rigorous grid of section roads, including W Co Rd 700 S. This map is particularly notable for its high density of family and community burial grounds, such as Eddleman Cemetery and Burks Chapel Cemetery, which provide essential landmarks for genealogical research. The varied drainage patterns of Wyaloosing Creek and Turnover Creek in the west contrast with the more linear road network, illustrating how the natural topography of southern Indiana continues to influence local infrastructure.
