1963 Map of Brunswick
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The agricultural landscape of Antelope County is anchored by the village of Brunswick and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad, which cuts a sharp horizontal line across the northern third of this 1963 survey. The rural character of the era is defined by a dense network of one-room schoolhouses, including Copenhagen Sch, Baird Sch, and School No. 115, serving the surrounding townships of Eden, Bazile, and Ellsworth. These institutions, alongside Bethany Ch and the West Willowdale Cemetery, reveal the social fabric of a community built around the section-line roads and the waters of Bazile Creek. The map provides an intricate view of early 1960s land use, from the Gravel Pits in the northeast to the numerous irrigation wells scattered across Crawford and Custer townships, illustrating the intensive transition to modern groundwater-fed farming.
