1960 Map of Conrad West

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Wolf Creek and its many tributaries, including Asher Creek, Little Asher Creek, and Chicken Creek, carve a rolling agricultural landscape at the border of Grundy and Marshall counties. The settlement of Conrad serves as the primary hub in the northeast corner, where the Chicago and North Western railroad line intersects the township grid. This 1960 field check documents a rural economy defined by surveyed sections and scattered infrastructure, such as the Quarry located just south of the main town site. Further south, the Prairieville Cem sits as a quiet landmark within Taylor township. The map illustrates the transition from the open fields of Felix and Liscomb to the established corporate boundaries of small-town Iowa, reflecting a mid-century period of stable land use and local industry.
