Indian Lakes and the surrounding marshlands of LaGrange and Noble counties define this glacial landscape, captured here as it appeared in the late 1950s. The chain of water bodies, including Oliver Lake, Dallas Lake, and Witmer Lake, supported a thriving recreation economy evidenced by the presence of Purdue University Limberlost Camp, a YWCA Camp, and Camp Okalona. The mapping reflects a period when the Pennsylvania and Wabash railroads still traversed the countryside, connecting small settlements like Wolcottville and Valentine to larger regional markets.
