About this map

Agricultural patterns and a network of drainage ditches define this portion of St. Joseph County in the late 1950s. The town of North Liberty sits at a crossroads of the Grand Trunk and New York Central railroads, serving as a focal point for the surrounding farming townships. The landscape is marked by numerous water bodies and small lakes, including Rupel Lake, Sousley Lake, and Elizabeth Lake, many of which are connected by systems like the Tascher Ditch and Strawberry Road DITCH. Local community life is anchored by landmarks such as Westlawn Cem, Liberty Sch, and the Crumstown Ch near the northern settlement of Crumstown. The presence of the Purdue Research Farm in the western reaches of the survey highlights the region's dedication to scientific agriculture, while the Kankakee River and Potato Creek drain the fertile but low-lying terrain.
