1939 Map of Caplinger Mills

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Sac River winds through a landscape defined by small-scale agriculture and early rural infrastructure in this late 1930s survey of the Washington township area. The settlement at Caplinger Mills serves as a focal point along the river, illustrating the historical importance of water-powered industry in Cedar County. Away from the riverbanks, the terrain is dotted with an unusually dense network of one-room schoolhouses, including Flatrock Sch, Cline Hill Sch, and Bluff Springs Sch, which suggest a well-populated rural community before the mid-century trend toward school consolidation.
