About this map

Rutland sits at the northern edge of this survey, anchoring a rural landscape defined by an extensive drainage network that spans the Marshall and Fulton County line. The settlement of Argos is visible in the northeastern corner, where Indiana Ave and Marshall St define the local grid. This area is characterized by a high concentration of named water management features, such as Leffert Ditch, Myers Ditch, and Clifton Ditch, reflecting a long history of land reclamation for agriculture.

Small natural basins still dot the terrain, including Mud Lake, Eddy Lake, and Zink Lake further south near Richland Center. An unusual landmark, the DDT Field, is noted west of Wolf Cr. The map's road system, featuring names like Pear Rd, Nutmeg Rd, and Peach Rd, suggests the agricultural roots of these township sections, while the presence of Blenis Lake and Anderson Lake provide evidence of the region's glacial topography.
