1969 Map of Huntingburg

About this map

Huntingburg serves as the industrial and transportation hub for Dubois County on this survey, centered on the Southern railroad line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Patoka River and its numerous tributaries, including Straight River and Hunley Creek. To the north, the outskirts of Jasper begin to emerge, while smaller settlements like Maltersville and Fairmount dot the surrounding townships. Local industry and utility are evidenced by several kilns and a claypit, alongside specialized infrastructure like the Huntingburg Airport and the Drive-in Theater near the river. Water resources are prominent, with both Knebel Lake and Huntingburg Lake appearing as significant landmarks. The map also documents essential community sites for genealogists, such as Hagen Cem and St Josephs Hospital.
