1962 Map of Bowmans Corners

About this map

Milford Colony sits north of the junction where Flat Creek Road meets the path of Hogan Creek. This 1962 field-checked map reveals a landscape defined by water management and transit, where the Hogan Ditch cuts across the terrain to support local needs. Further south, the intersection at Bowmans Corners serves as a primary local landmark, marking the transition toward Black Rock Creek and the southern drainage of Auchard Creek. The inclusion of Embody Road and several family-named or utilitarian labels like the Gravel Pit provides specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking the development of Lewis and Clark County before the onset of modern expansion. The terrain is characterized by the rhythmic drainage patterns of Flat Creek and the deep carved path of Long Coulee in the southeast.
