About this map

The city of Wabash serves as the central hub of this 2016 survey, situated along the winding Wabash River. The urban footprint is complemented by residential neighborhoods like Sunnymede, Valley Brook, and South Haven, showing the modern expansion of the community. In the river, Potter Island sits just downstream from the city center, while Shanty Falls provides a notable landmark near the water's edge. The industrial and transportation legacy of the region is represented by the Norfolk Southern railroad line, which cuts through the city, and the Wabash Municipal Airport located to the south.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites, including the Hebrew Cem, Friends Cem, and Memorial Lawns Cem. The surrounding township lands are drained by numerous waterways such as Charley Cr, Kentner Cr, and Treaty Cr, illustrating the well-watered agricultural landscape of Wabash County. From the established street grids in the city to the outlying Foster Cem and Renicker Cem, the map documents the organized settlement patterns of north-central Indiana.
