2019 Map of Newport

About this map

The Wabash River and its major tributaries, the Vermillion River and Little Vermillion River, define the landscape of this western Indiana borderland. Settlement patterns center on the historic hubs of Cayuga and Eugene, where a grid of streets like Walnut St and N Main St meet the surrounding agricultural reaches. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial grounds, including the Groendyke Cem and Isle Cem, alongside rural landmarks like the Coal Creek Covered Bridge near Lodi. The topography reveals the complex hydrology of the region, featuring Manhattan Island and the winding course of Jonathan Cr. Modern developments such as the Cayuga Park Pathway are documented alongside established small communities like Silverwood, Howard, and Newport, reflecting the long-term continuity of these river-valley townships.
