1962 Map of Milford

About this map

Turkey Creek and Solomon Creek dominate this northern Indiana landscape as it appeared in the early 1960s, winding through the townships of Jackson, Benton, and Van Buren. The intersection of the New York Central and Baltimore and Ohio railroads at Milford Junction underscores the region's historic reliance on rail transport for agricultural distribution. To the south, the village of Milford serves as a primary hub, while the resort character of the area begins to emerge around Wabee Lake and Dewart Lake.
