1969 Map of Hebron

About this map

Hebron serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated at the intersection of a major Penn Central rail line and local thoroughfares. To the north, the small settlements of Hurlburt and Boone Grove are connected by a network of drainage infrastructure, including the Erie-Lackawanna and Cornell Ditch, which manage the low-lying terrain typical of this Indiana region. The southern edge of the map is defined by the broad path of the Kankakee River, which serves as the boundary between Porter Co and Jasper Co. This area reveals a transition from the structured street grid of town life to a more dispersed agricultural pattern. Genealogists and local historians can locate several important burial sites, such as the Hebron Cem and Cornell Cem, along with distinct water features like Dog Lake and Fisher Pond that shaped the early settlement and transport routes of the township.
