About this map

The Wabash River meanders across the southern edge of this Indiana landscape, anchoring a rural topography defined by small settlements and a rigorous grid of country roads. To the north, Royal Center and Lucerne serve as community hubs, while the southern reaches near the river include the locales of Kenneth and Dunkirk, leading toward the northwestern edge of Logansport.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites throughout the territory, from the Royal Center Cemetery and Cline Cemetery in the northwest to the East Sand Ridge Cemetery on the eastern boundary. The land is heavily drained by an intricate system of man-made channels such as Miller Ditch, Brown Ditch, and McNitt Ditch, which redirect water into Crooked Creek. These features illustrate the extensive agricultural engineering required to manage the plains of Cass County.
