1967 Map of Adrian NE

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Nobles County is defined by the intersection of four townships: Larkin, Summit Lake, Olney, and Dewald. This 1967 survey captures a period of sophisticated prairie drainage and transport, characterized by the Judicial Ditch No 11B and County Ditch No 5 which channel water through the township lines. The region's connection to wider markets is maintained by two major rail lines, the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific in the north and the Chicago and North Western running across the southern portion. The natural drainage of Kanaranzi Creek and its East Branch Kanaranzi Creek meanders through the central fields, while Little Rock Creek flows through the southwest, illustrating the balance between natural waterways and the managed agricultural grid.
