1968 Map of Center Point NW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Cedar River carves a dramatic path through the heart of Benton County in the late 1960s, its course lined with recreational spaces like the Wildcat Bluff Recreation Area and Hoefle-Dulin Recreation Area. The township organization of Harrison, Polk, Taylor, and Benton is clearly defined, showing a rural landscape anchored by the town of Urbana and numerous family landmarks. Genealogists will find value in the placement of Kushing Cem and Cox Cem, alongside country churches such as Prairie Creek Ch and Oak Grove Ch. Industrial and transport footprints are evident through the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad line, a local Landing Strip, and several quarries and sandpits that signify the area's geological utility.
