Lake Maxinkuckee Its Intrigue History & Genealogy Culver, Marshall, Indiana

 


1922 Plat Map of Lake Cottage History  





Union Township, 1922


Town of Culver & West Shore to Long Point, East shore of Lake Maxinkuckee, Maxinkuckee Village, John H Murray's Subdivision, & South Shore Drive


This is probably an incomplete listing probably of cottage lots and owners - but this is what was listed on the plat map of 1922 and what I am able to decipher of it. I hope to connect everything from the 1876 plat map forward but that will take time and much more research - in hopes of making an accurate history and genealogy of the lake and along the way gathering pictures, maps, stories, myths, legends, biographies, obitauries etc. to enhance it.

None of these listings are eteched in stone - it is probably just a pratial listing from sources during this time period - and based on known facts of 1922, that was on the plat map - everything may change if I can ever get the use of some of the abstracts or cottagers step forth with corrected data.

I am carrying this data forward to each of the plat map as notes in the backqround if I can connect from this one to the next and then when connected fully it is added to each individual cottage/buisness page so that a complete history of that parcel can be had.

Hopefully from deeds, abstracts and future research we can list the complete property owners at this time.

There are several east side shore scenes and cottages that have not been identified as yet - they are presented here.

1922 Depot - Railroad Grounds - Boathouse

    Note the backwards "L" to the far east of the Railroad grounds - This was not given on the 1908 plat map this is to be the boathouse and thus would lead one to believe that it was built sometime between 1908 and 1922 by this fact. But another source states:
      The Boat and Bath house was built in 1886 and was purchased in 1894 by the Vandalia Railroad when it took over the park. "Mont" Monton H. Foss operated the Boat and Bath house


The area of the infamous "across from the depot", "one block west of the depot"... and the business district of Lakeshore Dr. (originally Toner Ave) now it spans from State Street to the corner of State Rd. 10 and 17.

In 1889 packed his household effects in wagons, and drove overland to Culver, Indiana, his journey consuming five weeks and four days. At this place he purchased a place formerly owned by Celia Van Schoiack, and for two years conducted a hotel opposite the location now occupied by his son in the same line of business. He still owns a fine residence on Toner Avenue, east of Vandalia Park, where he maintains a residence.

1 Oct 1903 is found in the Culver Citizen:
    Daniel Bradley is having the old house standing on his property at Bunker Hill tore down in preparatory to building a 7 room residence this fall.
and on 8 Oct 1903 is found:
    Al Keen has the contract to build Daniel A. Bradley's new house and began work last week.

Lake View Club Ground



1908-1929 - Lake View Club Hotel - burned on 15 November 1929.
The 1922 Plat map gives a clear detail of this area. On both the 1908 and 1922 it is is called the "Lake View Club Grounds"

Besides the hotel and park areas there were 47 individual lots for cabins or camping tents.

South



No defintie locaton to date has been pinned down as the the location as yet. It has been assumed that the camping area was in the southwest corner or in the general area a large campground began just south of the Walker boathouse and ran along the south shore of the lake for quite a ways - in the area known as "Farrar's Wood's" "Dinner Point"


Reading from west to east

The first section of land was more than often refered to as "Farrar's Wood's" & "Dinner Point" it contained 120 acres in all 1922 - Ada F. Daughtery & Wm. C. Farrar

At sometime after 1922 this property was divided up into lots, part of which are as follows:
1922, Apr 19 - up for sale property known as the Col Farrar cottage grounds:
    Being a part of the southeast quarter (SE1/4) of Section twenty-eight(28), township thirty-two (32) north, range one (1) east, being described as follows

    Beginning at a corner No. 5 on the west line of said quarter section, one thousand and seventy (1070) feet north of the south west corner of said quarter section; thence north on the west line of said quarter section line, twelve hundred and six and seventy-five hundreths (1206.75) feet to a stake on the southwest shore of Lake Maxinkuckee; thence in a southeasterly direction along the shore of said lake as it meanders to the east line of said southeast quarter section; thence south on the east line of said quarter section three hundred and thirty=three (333) feet to t corner marked "6"; thence north seventy-one (71) degrees thrity (30) minutes west twenty-eight hundred and fifteen and fifty hundreths 2815.50) feet to the place of begining consisting of forty (40) acres, more or less.
1922 - Jun 21 - One Peace of Lake Land on South Shore Aquired by Medbourn
    The 40 acres at the south end of the lake known as the Col Farrar porper was sold last week to S. E. Medbourn for $61,000. A portion of the tract is north of the highway running down to the lake with a frontage of 2800 feet. The remainder is farm land. The property has been held by heirs for a good many years abd has not been productive. Under Mr. Medbourn's ownership it is probable that some desirable cottage site will be platted and that the tillable portion will be carefully farmed.


Farrar' Point or Dinner Point - range is todays cottages of 290 - 343 South Shore Dr. An ad found on 21 May 1947 reads:

    Said real estate fronts on the southern end of Lake Maxinkuckee, the the north part thereof being about two miles south of the south corporation line of Culver, and this property is known as the Col Farrar cottage grounds, and comprises a little more than one-half mile of lake front, with good beach, which is all avaiable for platting into lake resort lots.


1922 - june 21 - The 40 acres at the south end of the lake known as the Col. Farrar property was sold last week to S. W. Medbourn.

    The suit has been one of the hardest fought cases in the history of the local court, two weeks of the court's time being taken for introduction of the evidence. The land invovled is 40 acres on the south bank of Lake Maxinkuckee, vauled at $75,000 - ROchester News Sentinel

Long Point



Reading from the South going North

Long Point - also known as Rochester Point J. Green [James Green] was to have owned all of Long Point at one time]

In 1903 Long Point in its entirety was offered for sale at $2,500 for development! In the 23 July 1903 Culver Citizen was found this ad:
    Long Point for Sale


    Long Point, the most beautiful and desireable for residences, hotel or educational institution on Maxinkuckee Lake is for sale at a bargin. Enquire of Daniel McDonald at his cottage south end of lake or to the owner.

The above lakefront area is South Street now and sometime after this date the old S. E. Medbourn Ice Houses area was plated out as the Medbourn & Phillips Add. for 14 lots at least by today's records:

The developement of this area did not start until about 1950. Of this area it is said that one could possibly picked up a lot for $150, if one had the cash. There were squatters there who used the land. With the elimination of the railroad in the late 1970's this opened up the developement of what one could possible call the 'last frontier' of Lake Maxinkuckee. This was basicially the last large un-inhabited area of lake frontage on Lake Maxinkuckee.

David Burns also refered to this area as "Corn Cob Hill" the name deriving from the material used to fill in the marshy area - just how true the story is one only knows.

    June (Garn) Napier Sirus rememebers that it was one large room when the Arthurhultz's bought it, there was two pillars of possibly cement block or stone in front that were were square a portico [porch leading to the entrance of a building, or extended as a colonnade, with a roof structure over a walkway, supported by columns]; and there were only three steps from the ground into the building. It had a canopy and it had a hedge that ran all the way around the edge of the property line. It had large windows in the front and was a stucco (with black, grey and white speck in it) type finish on the outside. It sat empty for many years until in the late 1970's when Charlene Garn)& "Ray" Raymond Arthurhultz and her husband bought it and remolded it and made it into a home. The Arthurhultz's bought it off Charlie Weaver or the estate. Just when this depot is in operation is not known or if it had a name is unknown - but it sat empty in the 1960's and into the 1970's also as I remember.
