About this map

The town of Churubusco serves as the focal point of this 2016 survey, straddling the boundary of Whitley and Allen Counties. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and drainage of the Eel River, which winds through the southern half of the map. Numerous irrigation and drainage systems, such as Smith Ditch and Johnson Ditch, reflect the area's agricultural development.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved across the landscape, including Riverview Cem and Watterson Cem. Local landmarks like Lake Everett and the Tropria Airport provide clear reference points for those studying modern land use in the region. The map also features notable natural water bodies like Blue Lake and Devils Lake in the northwest corner, highlighting the glacial topography typical of northern Indiana.
