1940 Map of Metz

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Metz and Alvarado anchor this 1938 survey of the rural landscape where Indiana meets Ohio and Michigan. The terrain is defined by a complex network of waterways and drainage, including Fish Creek, the Wabash River, and Black Creek. Numerous named bridges, such as Anspaugh Bridge and Enfield Bridge, reveal the vital crossing points of the era. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting several local houses of worship like Mt Pleasant Church and Bethel Church, alongside the Metz Cemetery and Eddy Cemetery. This corner of Steuben County shows a well-established agrarian community organized within York, Richland, and Franklin townships, featuring landmarks like the Tamarack School and Burdick Lake.
