1922 Plat Map list of Cottagers & Property Owners West Shore Town - Lake MaxinkuckeeThis 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, 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. Here is some interesting facts stated about the orginial property owners of the north side of the lake: Hopefully from deeds, abstracts and future research we can list the complete property owners at this time. 1908 - Holt Ice Company 1922 - S. E. Medburn [Samuel E. Medbourn] This area is South Street now and sometime after this date was plated out as the Medbourn & Phillips Add. for 14 lots ast least by today's records: Lot 1 Lot 2 & 3 South 1/2 Lot 3 North 1/2 Lot 4 & 5 South 1/2 Lot 5 & 5 North 1/2, 6 & 7 South 10' Lot 8 South 10' & 7 North 40' Lot 8 ?? amount left Lot 9 S 10' Lot 9 ?? amount left Lot 10 Lot 11 & South 1/2 of Lot 12 Lot 12 North 1/2 & 13 Lot 14  reading from the south to North 1908 - Wm.

Cottages were built on the Assembly grounds. In '04 there was mention of the "Oakridge" cottage, also the "Greenwood" and the Kearn cottage. In the summer of that year, E. W. Butterfield, of Brooklyn, Morgan, Indiana built a five-room cottage on the lake front at the Assembly grounds. Also known as Assembly Grounds, Maxinkuckee Park and Maxinkuckee Assembly.

Myers he had 17.35 acres, reached to lake edge) 1908 - Lot 1 Mary J. Hawkins 1922 - Hawkin's Addition - Subdivided as follows: Lot 15 Lot Elev. 1908 - Grist Mill, R. Kaley 1922 - Elev(avator)  On the Opposite corner of S. Plymouth Street & Mill (behind the Robert & Louise (Strang) Ott house on S. Main which is across from the EUB Church) was a building - It runs in my mind that it was a stopping point for the trains and was a depot for that end of town. June (Garn) Napier Sirus rememebrs that it was one large room when the Arthurhultz's bought it, there was two pillars one possibly cement block or stone in front that were were square; adn 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 owned and bought it off him 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 also as I remember. ----Mill St.--- Willow Point This point was also called 'Wolf Island' the 1870's and was one of the favorite embarking points for fisherman. when the named changed is uncertain. But the name 'Willow Point' came about I gather from the ample amount of large willow trees that stood on the property and along the shore of the point. June (Garn) Napier Jackson Sirus - says at one time there was a sign on the lake front that gave the property name as Willow Point but Esther Powers had it removed - she believes. June lived in this area for years on Winfield St. where hse raised her children and her mom and dad owned a home of Peru Court- so she was very familiar with the neighborhood. 1836/7 - James F. D.
