1973 Map of Canova West

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Vilas and Canova stand at the corners of this prairie landscape, where the agricultural grid is interrupted only by the meandering paths of Wolf Creek and Rock Creek. This mid-1970s survey illustrates a region shaped by the Chicago and North Western railroad, which cuts a diagonal line across the townships of Howard, Roswell, and Canova. The rural infrastructure is clearly defined, showing the distribution of small-scale industry through scattered Gravel Pits and the essential community landmarks of St Pauls Cem and Graceland Cem. The drainage patterns of the West Fork Vermillion River provide a natural contrast to the rigid property and section lines, offering insight into the late 20th-century hydrology and land use of eastern Miner County.
