1962 Map of Marietta

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Big Blue River and Sugar Creek converge across the fertile agricultural plains of the Johnson and Shelby County border in this mid-century portrait of central Indiana. Small rural communities like Bengal, Marietta, and Jollity anchor the landscape, while the Pennsylvania railroad line cuts through the southwest corner near the edge of the Camp Atterbury Military Reservation. This era shows a transition in local infrastructure, documented by the presence of a Pipeline and an Aqueduct crossing the river bottoms. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed regarding local burial sites and education, identifying the Smiley Cem, Brockman Cem, and the Township Sch. The presence of several Gravel Pits and a Pumphouse near the rail line reflects the local industrial and utility needs serving these small farming settlements.
