2010 Map of Onward

About this map

Wabash River frontage and the sprawling residential layout of Grissom Air Force Base define this Cass County landscape. The 2010 survey highlights a transition from the dense street grid of Walton and the Walton Post Office to the broad, agricultural expanses around Onward. A complex drainage network, including Government Ditch, Dry Run Ditch, and Phillips Ditch, underscores the region's managed hydrology, supporting both the military installations and rural farmland. For local historians, the map preserves the locations of several burial grounds, including Bowyer Cemetery near Pipe Creek and Garnand Cemetery. Aviation history is well-represented, with the runways of Grissom Air Force Base dominating the southeast and the smaller Headland Airport situated near Rock Creek.
