USGS Topo · Published 1929About this map
Balfour and the surrounding prairie of McHenry County are defined by the steady path of the Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroad in the late 1920s. This survey, coordinated by State Engineer H.C. Frahm, captures a landscape of scattered rural schoolhouses, including Fleming School and numerous unnamed district schools like School No 1 and School No 3, which served the farming townships of Strassburg, Byersville, and Aurena.
