    BLUE RIVER IrDIAN. UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BUREAU OF OUTDOOR RECREATION Region 4 FOR GOVERNMENT USE ONLY September 13, 1963 Memorandum To: The Director, Bureau of Outdoor Recreation From: Lake Central Study Team Subject: Blue River, Indiana The Blue River in the State of Indiana does not meet the five criteria established for inclusion within the proposed nation­ wide system of wild rivers. The river does not possess out­ standing recreational qualities from a national standpoint. In addition, although the stream is of sufficient length, it is relatively shallow, averaging from a few inches to a foot in depth, making boating difficult. The stream is floatable, but entails lengthy hauls or tiring portages. The river does possess recreational, historic and scientific values of state significance, and state action to preserve these qualities should be encouraged.

    Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science (1987) Volume 97 p. 247-252. Current Status of Natural Areas Listed by Lindsey, Schmelz and Nichols in Natural Areas in Indiana and their Preservation. John A. Bacone and Michelle L. Martin Indiana Department of Natural Resources Indiana Division of Nature Preserves Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 Introduction More than eighteen years have passed since the inventory of natural areas was completed by Lindsey et al. (1). This inventory was statewide in scope, and as such, was one of the first of its type in the nation. The inventory was funded by a grant from The Ford Foundation. In the preface, Gordon Harrison of The Ford Foundation noted that the inventory provided a basis for assigning protection priorities, helped to prevent destruction of natural areas through inadvertence, and was intended as a guide for those able to work toward saving some of what was left. In the years following publication, its significance has been demonstrated. Today, 18 years later, over half of the 155 areas listed in the study have at least some measure of protection, and only a handful have been destroyed. Compilation The files of the Division of Nature Preserves provided the data for this report. Information in these files came from years of field surveying by Division staff and many other natural area workers. Results Each natural area listed in the main body of Lindsey et al. (1) was categorized according to its current protection status. Highly protected areas (Table 1) include Table 1. Natural areas that have some type of permanent protection.

  • Proceedings of the Indiana Academy of Science
    Uppermost St. Louis Limestone (Mississippian): the Horse Cave Member in Indiana Frederick Jennings Woodson Department of Geography and Geology Indiana State University, Terre Haute 47809 Abstract The Horse Cave Member, named for exposures at Horse Cave, Hart County, Kentucky (15), extends into southern Indiana and constitutes a distinct, mappable subdivision of St. Louis Limestone. Horse Cave strata crop out from the Ohio River to at least Owen County. Thickness of the unit typically ranges 35-50 feet. Overlying the Horse Cave Member is the Fredonia Member, the lowest sub- division of Ste. Genevieve Limestone. The uppermost beds in the Horse Cave Member are dark-colored dolomites or dolomitic limestones which are overlain by a white, well-sorted, cross-bedded oolite, the lowest Fredonia lithology. The contact is placed between the dolomite and oolite. The Lost River Chert Bed (8) is found slightly below the dolomite and is an excellent, laterally-persistent marker. The lowest beds in the Horse Cave Member are grey biosparites which may locally be oolitic. These beds overlie a dark-colored dolomite which caps a zone of conspicuous spherical and lenticular chert. The contact is placed between the dolomite and biosparite. The base of the Horse Cave Member approximates the traditional St. Louis-Ste. Genevieve contact in Indiana. However, faunal and lithologic evidence argue that the formational boundary be raised. Introduction The Blue River Group (10) contains, in ascending order, St. Louis Limestone, Ste. Genevieve Limestone, and Paoli Limestone (Figure 1). These Mississippian carbonates crop out from the Ohio River into Putnam County (Figure 2), but their occurrence north of Greencastle, Putnam County, is sporadic owing to less deposi- tion and to pre-Pennsylvanian and Pleistocene erosion (6).

Rockenbach M.A., University of Cincinnati, 2000 B.A., Indiana University Southeast, 1998 Committee Chair: Professor Christopher Phillips i Abstract “War Upon Our Border”: War and Society in Two Ohio Valley Communities, 1861-1865 By Stephen I. Rockenbach During the American Civil War, guerrilla raids, military operations, economic hardships, political turmoil, and racial tensions upset the status quo of communities situated along the Ohio River border. This dissertation compares the wartime experiences of two border towns – Frankfort, Kentucky and Corydon, Indiana. These communities shared a legacy of white settlement and a distinct western identity, which fostered unity and emphasized cooperation during the first year of the war. However, the exigencies of war and the eventual demise of slavery in Kentucky divided citizens living on either side of the river border, including the people of Corydon and Frankfort. The Ohio River border was a cohesive economic and social unit at the beginning of the war, even though the river served as the legal boundary for slavery.
