1954 Map of Daly Corners

About this map

Sand Lake and the National Wildlife Refuge dominate the northwestern corner of this Brown County landscape, where the waters of the Columbia Road Reservoir meet the prairie. The map captures the organized rural structure of Shelby, Columbia, and Claremont townships during the mid-1950s. Settlement patterns are defined by the Chicago and North Western railroad line and small community hubs like Daly Corners. The presence of the Houghton Cem and local schoolhouses such as Knecht Sch and James Sch highlights the distributed nature of social life in this agricultural region. Water management is a visible priority, evidenced by the extensive Crow Creek Drainage Ditch and a specifically noted Flowing Well in the northern fields.
