2016 Map of Otterbein

About this map

Otterbein and Montmorenci anchor this rural landscape where the boundaries of Benton, Tippecanoe, and Warren Counties converge. The terrain is defined by an extensive drainage network, with systems like Otterbein Ditch, McKinney Ditch, and Edward Ditch channeling water across the agricultural plains toward the south. The Wabash River meanders through the southern section of the map, passing Goose Island and the landmark Granville Bridge. For local historians, the distribution of small burial grounds such as Pond Grove Cem, Asbury Cem, and Shambaugh Cem provides a clear view of early settlement patterns and family clusters. The presence of the Purdue University Pond and the small settlement of Old Halfway further distinguish this section of the Indiana countryside during the mid-2010s.
