1978 Map of Merrillville

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Ochlockonee River winds through this Thomas County landscape, punctuated by the Confederate Bridge and a series of swampy lowland features like Robin Bay and Pasco Bay. The settlement pattern in the late 1970s is defined by a dense network of country churches that serve as local anchors, including Little Ochlocknee Ch, Spring Hill Ch, and New Shiloh Ch. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad cuts diagonally across the terrain, passing near the small community of Merrillville and the hamlet of Dillon. To the east, the Thomasville Municipal Airport and a small Landing Strip represent the era's infrastructure, while the presence of a Lookout Tower and various sand and clay pits indicate the local forestry and extraction industries.
