About this map

The Wabash and Erie Canal cuts across the northwest corner of this Tippecanoe County landscape, tracing a historic transportation corridor parallel to the Wabash River. This 2013 survey illustrates the enduring agricultural character of the region, where rural settlements like Westpoint and Glenhall serve as local hubs for the surrounding farmsteads. The terrain is defined by its watercourses, including the notable Black Rock formation and the Fulton Islands within the river channel.

Further south, the map documents a network of drainage features such as Wallace Ditch and Slush Run that underscore the managed nature of this prairie landscape. Smaller hamlets like Odell and Roberts are situated at key intersections, connected by a grid of rural roads that have defined the township structure for generations. This survey provides a clear look at how historical infrastructure, like the old canal route, continues to shape the geographic layout of the territory.
