About this map

Middlebury serves as the central hub of this Elkhart County landscape, where the Little Elkhart River winds through the township. The geography is defined by a dense network of drainage infrastructure, including the Mather Ditch, York Township Ditch, and Rowe-Eden Ditch, reflecting the region's agricultural management. To the north, the small settlement of Vistula sits near the state line, while a cluster of glacial lakes—including Stone Lake, Brokesha Lake, and Goose Pond—dot the northeastern corner.

Genealogists and local historians will find several significant burial sites mapped with precision, such as Grace Lawn Cemetery near the town center, Mack Cemetery to the east, and the New Pennsylvania Cemetery. The map also captures the Bontrager Cemetery, a family-named landmark that points to the area's deep-rooted community heritage. These features, alongside the numerous named ditches and creek forks like North Fork Pine Creek, illustrate a highly utilized rural landscape shaped by both natural waterways and deliberate engineering.
