About this map

The Wabash River and Salamonie River converge near the settlement of Lagro, a focal point of this 2010 topographic study of Wabash County. The landscape is defined by the massive impoundment of Salamonie Lake, held back by the Salamonie Dam. This modern infrastructure contrasts with older landmarks like the prominent Hanging Rock and several community burial grounds, including the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery and Saint Patrick Cemetery.

Smaller water bodies and drainage patterns are meticulously mapped, from the northern Lagro Creek to the southern Back Creek near Lincolnville. The network of roads, such as Mail Trace Rd and Gene Stratton Porter Rd, follows a rigid grid that bisects the rolling terrain. Local-history researchers can also identify smaller locales like Possum Hollow and recreational or private waters such as Hominy Ridge Lake and Dick Thomas Pond.
