About this map

The Chippewa River meanders through a landscape of prairie wetlands and organized townships during the late 1960s. This survey focuses on the agricultural and conservation efforts at the intersection of Pope, Stevens, and Swift Counties. The village of Clontarf serves as a small hub in the southern portion of the map, situated along the Great Northern railroad line.

Social and civic life is anchored by landmarks such as the Townhall in Hoff and religious sites like West Zion Ch. For those tracing local roots, St Malachy Cem is a significant genealogical marker near the village. The map also highlights the establishment of National Wildlife Management Areas, reflecting a period of intentional land preservation alongside systematic water management via Judicial Ditch No 4.
