About this map

The glacial lakes of Steuben County dominate this landscape, where Lake James and Snow Lake create a complex network of peninsulas and points. Angola serves as the regional anchor in the southeast, characterized by its academic center at Trine University and the prominent Old Circle Hill Cem. This corner of Indiana is defined by its water-dependent settlements and summer colonies like Point Comfort, Spring Point, and Glen Eden.

Rural character persists in the western reaches near Nevada Mills and Panama, where the land is drained by Crooked Creek and Bell Lake Ditch. Aviation is well-represented with both the Tri-State Steuben County Airport and the smaller Streibig Airport. Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the townships, including West Jamestown Cem near the northern boundary and Lake Gage Cem further south. The map reflects a blend of traditional agricultural grids and the winding residential lanes that trace the irregular shorelines of water bodies such as Loon Lake and Silver Lake.
