2019 Map of Saint Joe

About this map

The Saint Joseph River winds through the eastern half of this DeKalb County landscape, anchoring the riverside settlements of St. Joe and Spencerville. This agricultural region is meticulously divided by a network of county roads and drainage systems, including N Br Hursey Ditch and Sebert Ditch, which support the low-lying farmland. Local heritage is preserved in numerous family-named burial grounds dotting the townships, such as Riverside Cem, White City Cem, and the small Cosper Cem near the northern boundary. The community of Concord serves as another focal point, situated at a crossroad among these drainage basins. This detailed survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and the many named waterways that have long shaped the settlement patterns of northeastern Indiana.
