1953 Map of Boggs Island

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Missouri River cuts a deep, winding path through this northern Montana landscape, defined by dramatic breaks and the alluvial landform of Boggs Island. This mid-century survey captures a sparsely settled agricultural and riverine region where the Virgelle Ferry remains a critical link across the water near the small settlement of Virgelle. The upland plains are marked by the presence of early 20th-century rural education sites, including the Mt Vernon School and the already noted Little School (Aband), reflecting the shifting demographics of Chouteau County as small homesteads consolidated.
