1961 Map of Nottawa

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Wasepi and the Nottawa Community Sch anchor this landscape in central St. Joseph County, where the converging tracks of the Pennsylvania and New York Central railroads historically defined local movement. The terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and waterways, including Sand Lake, Sylvan Lake, and the winding Prairie River, which feeds into the complex marshlands of the Leidy Lake Game Area. This 1961 survey captures the area at a peak of rural community development, evidenced by the numerous local burial grounds such as Laird Cem, Pioneer Cem, and Babcock Cem. Cultural landmarks like the Prairie River Speedway and the Locust Grove Ch reflect the social life of the region, while scattered Gravel Pits and Marl Pits point to the local extraction industry that supported road building and agriculture in the mid-century era.
