1968 Map of Arlington
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The Elkhorn River carves a winding path through the heart of this Washington County landscape, accompanied by the Chicago and North Western railroad that defines the local transit corridor. The settlement of Arlington serves as the primary hub, where the rail line passes through the northern edge of the village. The surrounding countryside is dotted with markers of early rural life, including School No 3 and School No 43, alongside the Arlington Cem and the Seventh Day Adventist Cem. Topographic details reveal the complex hydrology of the region, specifically Rawhide Creek and its Old Channel, which suggest a shifting riverbed over time. The map also captures the distinct land divisions between Arlington, Fontanelle, and Valley townships, providing a clear view of the area's social and geographic organization in the late 1960s.
