About this map

Lafayette extends its southern suburban reach into this portion of Tippecanoe County, where residential developments like those along W Admirals Pointe Dr meet the agricultural traditions of Taylor and Shadeland. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainage and waterways, including Wea Creek, Flint Cr, and several man-made channels like Haywood Ditch and Kellerman Leaming Ditch that support the region's productive farmland.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of small burial grounds scattered across the townships, such as Farmers Institute Cem, Mintonye Cem, and Hickory Grove Cem, reflecting early settlement patterns outside the main city. In the southern half of the map, the small community of Romney sits near the Ratcliff Airport, while the village of South Raub remains a distinct marker along the established transit corridors. This survey provides a precise view of the interface between growing residential neighborhoods and the persistent rural character of the Indiana countryside.
