2015 Map of Bridgewater East

About this map

The town of Bridgewater anchors the western edge of this prairie landscape, where the street grid of N Cherry Ave and N Walnut Ave meets the surrounding township sections. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey representation of McCook County illustrates a classic agrarian layout defined by a precise network of range lines and section roads like 441st Ave and 264th St. Genealogists and local historians will find significant landmarks preserved on this sheet, including Saint Stephens Cem north of town and Pleasant Prairie Cem situated further east near the center of the quadrangle. The small settlement at Stanley Corner marks a key intersection on the eastern side, serving as a distinct waypoint in an otherwise expansive landscape of wetlands and depressions characteristic of the glaciated plains.
