1963 Map of Chester

About this map

Chester serves as the focal point of this northern Montana landscape, situated at the junction of the Great Northern railroad and regional transport lines. The 1963 survey captures the town's essential infrastructure, including the Liberty County Airport and a dedicated Athletic Field. To the north, the terrain is marked by the winding course of Cottonwood Creek and several Gravel Pits, indicating the local industry and geology of the era. The presence of the Great Northern Reservoir and a nearby Filtration Plant highlights the managed water systems necessary for this high-plains community. On the western outskirts, the Chester Cemetery remains a key landmark for genealogical research, while a significant Pipeline cuts across the northern sections, reflecting mid-century energy development in the region.
