Wells in a specific Township may be retrieved by searching for the composite four-part Township Name.
For example, township 8S-9W:
8 |
= |
Township Number (Twp_Number) |
S |
= |
Township Direction (Twp_Direction) |
9 |
= |
Range Number (Rng_Number) |
W |
= |
Range Direction (Rng_Direction) |
The search results will include both Congressional Townships and Artificial Townships.
Be aware that there two different Meridians used to reference Congressional Townships in different parts of Indiana—in certain situations, failing to take them into account can lead to erroneous search results.
