About this map

Lake Maxinkuckee dominates this landscape in the northern Indiana lake country, where the town of Culver sits along its northwestern shore. The 2019 survey shows the established town layout adjacent to the Masonic Cem and Lost Lake, while the smaller settlement of Maxinkuckee rests on the eastern bank. To the south and west, the Tippecanoe River meanders through the farmland, connecting the communities of Monterey and Delong.

A complex network of agricultural drainage is evident throughout the four counties meeting here—Marshall, Starke, Pulaski, and Fulton. Named features such as Williams Arm Ditch, Thompson Ditch, and B F Overmyer Ditch highlight the extensive hydrological engineering required for the region's farming. Genealogists will find numerous rural burial grounds including Riverside Memorial Cem, Zion Cem, and North Union Cem distributed across the prairie.
