Help with Location

The 1830 census for Clark County, identifies “That part of Clark County North East of the State road leading from McDonalds Ferry to Browns town” as a location for some of those recorded. Can someone pinpoint where that is in Clark County?

McDonald’s Ferry was right on the Ohio River, on Charlestown Landing Road. The old Brownstown Road is way out in Monroe Township, just north of Henryville/Clark State Forest, at the opposite end of the county from McDonald’s Ferry.
