1960 Map of Angola East

About this map

Fremont and the northeastern corner of Angola anchor this Steuben County landscape, illustrating a period of significant infrastructure development. The Indiana East-West Toll Road slices diagonally across the terrain, creating a modern contrast to the established paths of the New York Central railroad and the network of township roads. Numerous small lakes and wetlands, such as Cedar Lake, Marsh Lake, and Walters Lake, define the local geography, many of which are connected by Pigeon Creek. Local history is well-preserved through numerous rural landmarks, including the Scott Center Sch and several small burial grounds like Kope Cem and Sowles Cem. In the south, the Public Fishing Site at Pigeon Lake highlights the area's recreational character during the early 1960s.
