1966 Map of Downing
USGS Topo · Published 1967About this map
The Chicago Burlington And Quincy railroad tracks cut across the northern terrain of this map, serving the small community of Downing near the border of Miller and Fabius townships. The landscape is deeply carved by the branching systems of the North Fabius River and the Middle Fork North Fabius River, with numerous small tributaries like Wildcat Creek and Bridge Creek creating a network of ridges and draws. This 1960s survey documents a rural landscape defined by its section lines and local institutions, including several country churches such as Dover Ch and Cumberland Ch. Genealogists may find value in the placement of small burial grounds like McGrady Cem and East Lynn Grove Cem, which represent the early settlement fabric of Schuyler and Scotland counties.
