2022 Map of Laud

About this map

Laud serves as a central point in this agricultural landscape of southern Whitley County, situated at the intersection of several local routes. The area is defined by a dense network of water management features including Gangwer Ditch, Kaufman Ditch, and Deal-Taylor Ditch, which support the surrounding farmlands. Smaller settlements like Peabody, Briggs, and Raber appear along the northern corridors, providing a look at the historical rural distribution of this region. To the south, the terrain follows the natural winding paths of Big Indian Cr and Little Indian Cr as they approach the border with Huntington County. Local history is reflected in landmarks such as the Oak Grove Cem and aviation sites like Gordon Airport and Homestead Airport, while the Eel River crosses the northwest corner, marking one of the primary natural waterways in the quadrangle.
