1961 Map of Angus SE
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The agricultural grid of northwestern Minnesota is meticulously documented here, showing the rural structure of Helgeland, Brandt, and Belgium townships during the early 1960s. This survey, conducted by the Usgs using photogrammetric methods from 1954 and planetable surveys from 1961, preserves the locations of vital community centers in a region dominated by farm fields and section lines. Notable landmarks include the Melo Ch and an adjacent Cem, which served the local farming families of the area. Educational history is represented by School No 1659, while various Gravel Pit and Gravel Pits sites across the landscape indicate the local extraction of glacial deposits for road construction and infrastructure in this portion of Polk County.
