1953 Map of Alborn

About this map

The Duluth Missabe and Iron Range Railroad serves as the industrial backbone of this landscape, with its corridor linking the rail-hubs of Alborn, Coleraine Junction, and Culver. These settlements, along with Arlberg and Burnett, illustrate the mid-century development of St. Louis County, where transportation and timber gave rise to small rural centers. The map reveals a high concentration of community landmarks for genealogists, including Bethlehem Ch, Industrial Ch, and several burial grounds like Spruce Hill Cem and the Indian Cem. Natural features are dominated by the winding path of the Artichoke River and the expansive Cloquet River in the southeast, while numerous water bodies like Artichoke Lake and Schelin Lake punctuate the northern sections. A Rest Home and several town halls further document the social infrastructure of this Northwoods region.
