1975 Map of Bloomer

About this map

Bloomer serves as the focal point for this mid-1970s survey of northwestern Chippewa County, where the industrial presence of the C & NW railroad and the local Fairground anchor the community life near Lake Como. The landscape transitions from the developed streets of the city to the rural townships of Woodmohr and Tilden, defined by a network of creeks including Duncan Creek and O'Neil Creek. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the numerous burial sites across the quadrangle, from the North St Paul Cem to the Scandinavian Ch and its associated cemetery. The presence of the Municipal Airport and various Gravel Pits reflects the area's mid-century economic infrastructure, while outlying settlements like Eagleton and Eagle Point maintain their distinct rural character along well-traveled routes like Eagleton Rd.
