1962 Map of Poe

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The St Marys River meanders across this rural landscape south of Fort Wayne, defining the settlement patterns and road networks of early 1960s Allen County. The village of Poe sits at a prominent bend in the river, connected to the surrounding countryside by a dense grid of gravel and paved roads like Winchester Road. To the north, the community of Hessen Cassel serves as a local hub, while the Erie Railroad cuts a diagonal path through the eastern section near Hoagland. This era shows a high concentration of institutional landmarks that tell the story of the area's social fabric, including Emmanuel Sch, Antioch Ch, and multiple family or parish burial grounds such as Archbold Cem and El Honan Cem. The intersection of drainage ditches like Nickelsen Ditch with traditional routes like Wayne Trace illustrates the ongoing agricultural management of this Indiana flatland.
