About this map

The Pigeon River State Fish and Wildlife Area dominates the center of this LaGrange County landscape, where the Pigeon River winds through a complex system of marshes and ponds. This early 1990s record details a diverse water network including Nasby Millpond, Mongo Millpond, and Ontario Millpond, reflecting the historical importance of these waterways for milling and recreation. The settlement of Mongo sits at a river bend, serving as a local hub near the Mongo Cemetery and several campgrounds.

Rural community life is anchored by several small settlements and religious centers. To the west, Plato features the Plato Mennonite Ch, while Brighton lies to the north near the Indiana East-West Toll Road. Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds, such as English Prairie Cem and Rogers Cemetery, alongside local landmarks like the Bloomfield Hills Sch and the Curtis Creek Fish Hatchery.
