1969 Map of Ashland West

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Memphis and the northern outskirts of Ashland serve as the primary focal points of this 1960s study, where the plains of Saunders County meet the winding course of Wahoo Creek. The landscape is defined by its water and transport networks, notably the Burlington Northern railroad lines that parallel the creek and Silver Creek as they move toward their confluence with Salt Creek. Local recreation and community life are anchored by the Memphis Lake State Recreation Area and the Ashland Country Club, reflecting the area's mix of agriculture and leisure. The map preserves the locations of rural infrastructure such as School No 3 and School No 5, alongside family burial grounds like Carr Cem. These features illustrate the mid-century settlement patterns just before modern expansion began to alter the rural character of this tri-county border region where Saunders, Lancaster, and Cass counties meet.
