1957 Map of Maples
USGS Topo · Published 1982About this map
The Maumee River corridor and the flat agricultural lands of Allen County define this landscape, where a dense network of drainage ditches—including the Marsh Ditch and Grover Ditch—reflects the intensive engineering required to transform the former Great Black Swamp into productive farmland. The settlement of Maples serves as a local hub along the Conrail line, while the Lincoln Highway cuts a distinctive diagonal across the center of the sheet, linking Tillman and Zulu. Educational and spiritual life is anchored by landmarks like the St Louis Academy, Peoples Chapel, and the St Pauls Ch, alongside rural cemeteries such as Gar Creek Cem. A significant industrial or rail facility is noted in purple near Edgerton, appearing as a later revision to the original mid-century topography. From the New Haven Conservation Club in the northwest to Four Presidents Corners in the southeast, the map documents the persistent grid of farm roads and the legacy of early Indiana transit routes.
