1978 Map of Dresden South

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Dresden and Leoville anchor this portion of the High Plains near the border of Decatur Co Sheridan Co in the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by the diagonal transit of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad, which cuts across the townships of Dresden and Lyon. The topographic survey reveals a terrain of draws and divides that eventually drop south toward the North Fork Solomon River. Evidence of local community and utility is found in the Cem near Leoville and a prominent Radio Tower outside Dresden. This area within Sheridan and Union townships maintains a rural character, where small-scale industry like a southern Sandpit represents the local economy during this era.
