1947 Map of Blythedale
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
Chicago Burlington and Quincy rail lines thread through Harrison County's agricultural heartland, connecting rural hubs like Blythedale and Ridgeway during the post-war era. The landscape is defined by a dense network of civic landmarks, including over a dozen neighborhood schools such as Snowball Sch and High Point Sch, which served the scattered farming families of Colfax and Marion townships. In the eastern portion of the survey, the Thompson River and its tributaries like Coal Creek and Trail Creek carve through the terrain, while Yankee Ridge provides a prominent natural divide.
