1968 Map of Blue Rapids NE

About this map

Blue Rapids sits at the western edge of this landscape, where the confluence of the Blue River and the Vermillion River is transformed by the waters of Tuttle Creek Lake. The map reveals a transition from the agricultural uplands of Elm Creek and Wells townships down to the managed riparian environment of the Tuttle Creek State Wildlife Area. This late 1960s survey preserves the locations of several rural landmarks, including the Pleasant Valley Sch and multiple burial grounds like Edinborough Cem and Seville Cem. Transportation patterns are clearly etched into the terrain, from the active Missouri Pacific line to an Old Railroad Grade and the Linch Landing Strip, showing how industry and infrastructure followed the natural river valleys of Marshall County.
