About this map

The Cedar River valley in Boone County serves as the central corridor for both rail and settlement in the mid-1950s. The Union Pacific railroad tracks parallel the winding river, connecting the primary town of Cedar Rapids with the smaller village of Primrose to the northwest. This agricultural landscape is meticulously divided by township lines, including Dublin, Roselma, and Cedar, which reveal a network of rural education sites such as School No 14, Standard Sch, and School No 48.
