2016 Map of North Manchester North

About this map

North Manchester anchors the southern edge of this map, positioned where the Eel River winds through the landscape. The town's academic roots are visible at Manchester Coll, while the surrounding rural landscape in Wabash and Kosciusko Counties is defined by a grid of country roads and scattered family cemeteries. Significant local burial sites including Oaklawn Cem, Clemmers-Fishers Cem, Gospel Hill Cem, and Swank Cem provide valuable touchstones for genealogists tracing early residents of the region. The terrain is marked by several water bodies, such as Beigh Lake and the meandering paths of Trimble Cr and Plunge Cr, which illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have influenced agricultural development and settlement since the area was first surveyed.
