About this map

Rutland and Richland Center anchor this agricultural landscape across the Marshall Co and Fulton Co line. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems such as Clifton Ditch, Warner Ditch, and Eddy Cr Ditch, which manage the many wetlands and small water bodies that dot the area. These features, including Mud Lake, Eddy Lake, and Zink Lake, suggest a glacial history that has been heavily modified for modern farming.

Remote airfields and local industry are represented by DDT Field in the central portion of the map, while the outskirts of Argos appear in the northeastern corner. The road grid, named with a mix of botanical and numerical identifiers like Pear Rd, Olive Trl, and 18th Rd, highlights the late 20th-century transition toward a more structured rural-residential layout. Local landmarks like O'Blennis Lake and Anderson Lake provide clear points of reference for genealogists tracking family properties in this part of northern Indiana.
