1962 Map of Linn Grove

About this map

The Wabash River winds through this section of the Indiana countryside, anchoring a landscape shaped by small settlements and an extensive network of drainage projects. The village of Linn Grove sits along the river's southern bank, while the small community of Vera Cruz and the nearby Riverside area occupy a bend further upstream. A notable recreational landmark, the Ouabache State Recreation Area, features Kunkel Lake and a Lookout Tower, providing a distinct contrast to the surrounding agricultural grid. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial sites, including St Johns Cem, Linn Cem, and Moser Cem. The terrain is defined by a systematic hydraulic infrastructure, evidenced by numerous named channels like Joint Ditch and Hierly Ditch, which manage the flow through the French and Nottingham townships.
