1959 Map of Mentone

About this map

The Tippecanoe River meanders through the northern portion of this landscape, its path defined by a series of engineered drainage systems like Birch Ditch and Moore Ditch. This 1959 survey, updated with later aerial data, reveals a rural Indiana agricultural network at a crossroads of three counties: Marshall, Kosciusko, and Fulton. The town of Mentone serves as the primary hub, surrounded by smaller historic points of interest such as Old Tip Town and the settlement of Sevastopol to the south.
