1968 Map of Coloma SW

About this map

Big Flats and the surrounding townships of Colburn, Preston, and Richfield reveal a landscape defined by an intricate network of wetlands and seasonal drainages in Adams County. Water is the primary architect here, with the northern reaches marked by Big Roche a Cri Creek and the southern portion drained by Little Roche a Cri Creek. The area's hydrology is further detailed by features like Carter Creek, Bingham Creek, and Dry Creek. Cultural markers are sparse but significant, including Ship Rock Wayside Park along a major thoroughfare. The map's grid of section lines and early rural roads, such as Brown Deer Avenue and Chicago Avenue, shows the systematic parceling of this marshy terrain during the mid-20th century, providing a clear view of the land before modern intensive development.
