1962 Map of North Webster

About this map

The Tippecanoe River winds through this lake-rich portion of northern Indiana, connecting a dense network of glacial water bodies including Lake Tippecanoe, James Lake, and the expansive Webster Lake. The map details a landscape deeply shaped by recreation and conservation, featuring numerous youth retreats such as Camp Tippecanoe, Camp Dick Runyan, and Camp Crosley. The vast Tri-County State Fish and Game Area dominates the central and northern sections, encompassing smaller basins like Shock Lake and Long Lake. This 1962 revision provides a look at the early development of lakeside communities like North Webster, Indian Village, and Epworth Forest. Beyond the water, the survey identifies several rural landmarks for genealogists, including the Mock Cem and Oak Grove Cem, alongside the Old Indian Treaty Boundary which cuts diagonally across the townships.
