1965 Map of Du Bois
USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
Du Bois sits at the heart of this mid-1960s landscape, positioned where the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad tracks parallel the winding course of the South Fork Big Nemaha River. The surrounding prairie is defined by a dense network of early rural social centers, including several named schoolhouses like Sheridan Sch and Avondale Sch that served the farming families of southern Pawnee County. The map captures a moment when traditional agrarian life was still anchored by these local landmarks and small family cemeteries.
