About this map

The Mississinewa River winds through the southern half of this landscape, anchoring a rural territory where the borders of Delaware, Jay, and Randolph counties converge. Industrial and agricultural life in the early 1960s is defined by the intersection of rail and road, with the New York Chicago and St Louis Railroad and the Pennsylvania line cutting through the towns of Dunkirk, Redkey, and Albany. Numerous small family and community landmarks are scattered across the townships, including Sugar Grove Ch and several burial grounds like Hillcrest Cem and Caylor Cem. Of particular note is the Purdue University Agriculture Experiment Station in the southeast, reflecting the region's scientific investment in local farming. A network of pipelines and occasional gas wells point to the area's subterranean resources during this era.
