1957 Map of Waterloo

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The town of Waterloo serves as the focal point of this DeKalb County landscape, where the intersection of the New York Central railroad and the Grand Army Highway illustrates the region's mid-century transportation network. The map reveals a high concentration of institutional landmarks essential to rural Indiana life in the late 1950s, including the De Kalb County Home and the East Richland Twp Sch. Smaller settlements like Sedan and Pleasant Chapel are documented alongside numerous family and church burial grounds such as Tamarack Cem and Cedar Lake Cem. Religious life is anchored by St Michaels Ch, Maple Grove Ch, and Cedar Lake Ch. Agricultural drainage is meticulously detailed through features like the Hoffelder Ditch feeding into Cedar Creek, reflecting the managed hydrology of the Smithfield and Richland townships.
