1961 Map of Brandon SE

About this map

The Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad cuts a straight diagonal through this high plains landscape, serving as the primary industrial artery for the region during the early 1960s. Surveyed as part of the Missouri River Basin development program, the map reveals a sparsely settled agricultural area divided between the townships of Liberty and Lisbon. Local education is anchored by School No 50, a solitary landmark in an area characterized by section lines and fence boundaries. The terrain transitions from the elevated Highland north of the tracks down toward the southern Valley, where Spring Creek meanders through the corner of the quadrangle. A small Gravel Pit near the eastern border provides a glimpse into the local materials used for road building and maintenance in this Perkins County expanse.
