1972 Map of Walkerton

About this map

Walkerton serves as a significant rail junction in this northern Indiana landscape, where the Baltimore and Ohio, Penn Central, and Norfolk and Western lines intersect. The map illustrates a region transitioning from concentrated small-town centers to a network of rural roads and water features like Yellow Bank Creek and Hardys Lake. To the south, the community of Koontz Lake straddles the county line, showing a dense settlement pattern around the water's edge. Local education and religious life are anchored by Glenn High Sch and Township Sch, while rural pockets like Teegarden and Tyner highlight the persistent small-town structure of the early 1970s. Industrial activity is visible in several Gravel Pits, pointing to the local extraction economy that supported the area's development.
