About this map

Fulton stands at the crossroads of State Road 114 and State Road 25, anchoring a landscape defined by an intricate network of agricultural drainage. This rural Indiana topography is etched with numerous named waterways, including the Studebaker Hiatt Ditch, Kern Neff Ditch, and Sylvester Maroney Ditch, illustrating the intensive engineering required to manage the local water table for farming. Small unincorporated settlements like Marshtown and Fletcher remain visible as quiet clusters among the section-line roads.

Aviation history is represented by two small-scale facilities, Friedrich Airport to the north and the Dague Strip Airport further west. In the southwestern quadrant, Fletcher Lake provides a natural contrast to the geometric precision of the surrounding ditches like Gault Ditch and Deweese Ditch. The map reveals the persistence of family-named landmarks and the grid-based development characteristic of Fulton County's agricultural heartland.
