About this map

Mentone serves as the primary hub for this rural stretch of northern Indiana, where the borders of Marshall, Kosciusko, and Fulton counties meet. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of agricultural drainage systems including the William Baker Ditch, Welch Ditch, and Harsh Ditch, reflecting the region's managed wetlands and high-output farming. These artificial watercourses feed into the Tippecanoe River, which meanders through the northwest corner near Old Tip Town and the village of Tippecanoe.

Genealogical interest is supported by several local burial sites such as Yellow Creek Cem and Meredith Cem. To the southeast, the small settlement of Sevastopol marks a historic crossroads, while the Mentone Airport and Sycamore Memorial Park highlight more contemporary land use. The map reveals a strictly gridded road system that transitions from county roads to named streets within the townships.
