1969 Map of Hamlet

About this map

The Kankakee River and a dense network of drainage ditches define this Indiana landscape at the close of the 1960s, reflecting generations of land reclamation in Washington and Johnson townships. In the southern portion of the sheet, the town of Hamlet serves as a junction for the Penn Central and Baltimore and Ohio railroads, featuring the local Fairgrounds and the Township Sch. Further east, the settlement of Grovertown sits along the historic Yellowstone Trail near the crossing of the Norfolk and Western line.
