Lindside Silt Loam
The Linside series consists of deep, moderately well drained soils of the first
bottoms. These soils are of moderate extent in the county; they are widely scattered along
rivers and small creeks. Those soils along the creeks formed in sediment that washed
mostly from soils of limestone origin, and those along the Ohio River formed in mixed
sediment that washed from the upper part of the Ohio River basin.
