About this map

The Tippecanoe River meanders through a landscape defined by the convergence of White, Carroll, and Tippecanoe counties. The area around Battle Ground and the Wabash River is particularly dense with historical markers, including Prophet Rock and the Battle Ground Cem. These features reflect the region's deep significance in local frontier history and early 19th-century conflicts.

Transportation corridors like the railroad line through Brookston and rural routes such as N River Rd connect small settlements like Ash Grove and Americus. The map reveals a high concentration of burial grounds, from the large Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem to smaller family or community plots such as Smelcer Cem and Pretty Prairie Cem, which provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research in this part of Indiana.
