2016 Map of La Fontaine

About this map

La Fontaine serves as the primary hub in this portion of Wabash County, where the local street grid including E Kendall St meets several regional routes. The surrounding landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, with Grant Cr and its northern branch cutting through the central terrain while Metocinah Cr and Badger Cr flow toward the southwest. These creek systems historically influenced the placement of numerous small family and community burial grounds, such as Stone Cem and Rennaker Cem. To the south, the settlement of Fox and the Fox Station Airport mark the transition toward Grant County, near where Metocinah Cr nears the Mississinewa River. The density of named cemeteries like Meshingomesia Cem and America Cem suggests a long-established rural population and offers significant points of interest for genealogical research in the region.
