1962 Map of Sweetser
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
Swayzee and Sweetser anchor this 1962 landscape in Grant County, where the agricultural grid of central Indiana is defined by a dense network of early rail lines. The Pennsylvania and C & O railroads intersect near Converse and Mier, while the Chicago And ST Louis line serves the southern grain-handling facilities and Storage Bins. Local history is preserved in the placement of rural institutions like Taylors Creek Church, Richland Chapel, and several family and community burial grounds including Thrailkill Cemetery and Rowland Cemetery. Education is centralized at the Oak Hill High School and Swayzee School. The terrain is drained by a system of meandering natural watercourses such as Pipe Creek and Taylor Creek, alongside man-made improvements like Potter Ditch Road and Brown Ditch.
