About this map

The Wapsipinicon River defines the northern edge of this landscape, where the settlement of Dixon sits at the junction of water and rail. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cuts through the terrain, passing near New Dixon and linking the rural townships of Liberty and Allens Grove. This mid-century survey reveals a highly organized agricultural district in Scott County, characterized by a dense network of one-room schoolhouses like Dreyer School and School No 7.
