1969 Map of Knox West

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Yellow River and Kankakee River frame this landscape of Northwest Indiana, where a dense network of drainage channels like Marquardt Ditch and Jackson-Shilling Ditch transformed the wet prairie into productive agricultural land. The city of Knox sits at the eastern edge, serving as a regional hub defined by the crossing of the Conrail and Norfolk and Western rail lines. To the west, the settlement of Brems is positioned near Indian Hill, highlighting the sparse but significant elevations in this predominantly flat terrain.
