2022 Map of Whitewater

About this map

The Middle Fork East Fork Whitewater River carves through the undulating borderland of Wayne County, Indiana, and Darke County, Ohio. This rural landscape is defined by its small crossroads settlements and a dense network of country roads including the Fountain City Pike and Richmond-Palestine Rd. The settlement of Whitewater serves as a central point in an area where agricultural land is occasionally broken by natural features like the Sunbeam Prairie and numerous small watercourses such as Vernon Brook and Clay Run. Genealogy researchers will find several family-named landmarks and local burial grounds, such as Mount Vernon Cem, Cedar Grove Cem, and Bethel Cem. To the south, the map captures the northern outskirts of Richmond, where the terrain transitions toward the confluence of the Middle Brook and the Middle Fork East Fork Whitewater River.
