1950 Map of Cushing

USGS Topo · Published 1950

About this map

Randall, Cushing, and Lincoln anchor this mid-century portrait of Central Minnesota, where the dense hydrology of the Turtle Creek and Little Elk townships meets the industrial line of the Northern Pacific railroad. The landscape is defined by its glacial heritage, featuring a vast network of water bodies such as Alexander Lake, Fish Trap Lake, and the complex Chain of Lakes. This survey is a remarkable resource for identifying dozens of rural educational centers, including Willis School and Fawn Lake School, which served dispersed agricultural families. Local civic life is documented through the locations of the Scandia Valley Town Hall and Parker Town Hall, while spiritual and commemorative sites like the Evangelical Free Church and Roselund Cemetery provide essential touchpoints for genealogical research in this lake-strewn portion of Morrison and Todd counties.
