1958 Map of Monroe City

About this map

Monroe City and the surrounding farmland of southern Knox County define this landscape as it appeared in the mid-20th century. The White River carves a dramatic path through the southern half of the sheet, creating prominent geographic features like the Sevenmile Bend and The Bluffs. The map illustrates a rural society organized around local landmarks and drainage systems, including the Kessinger Ditch and several small water bodies such as Warner Lake and Patrick Pond. Scattered churches and small settlements like Willis and Five Points suggest a tight-knit community structure typical of the era.
