1935 Map of Dorchester
USGS Topo · Published 1935About this map
Dorchester serves as the central hub of this 1935 landscape, situated along the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line. The surrounding countryside is defined by an exceptionally dense network of rural schoolhouses, including the Red Brick Sch, Sunnyside Sch, and Evergreen Sch, suggesting a highly distributed agrarian population during the mid-1930s. This survey records a system of early water management with numbered structures like Dam NO 1 and Dam NO 6 along the West Fork Big Blue River and its tributaries.
