1964 Map of Fairmount NW

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Wild Rice River meanders through the heart of Richland County in this mid-1960s survey, defining the agricultural landscape of Center and Summit townships. This map provides a clear record of the rural infrastructure during a period of established family farming, where section lines and local landmarks served as the primary coordinates for community life. Public education and civic gathering points are prominently marked, including several localized schoolhouses such as School No 5, School No 1, and School No 3. A concentrated hub of community activity is visible at the Townhall, situated near St Johns Ch. The detailed topography, mapped by the U.S. Geological Survey using aerial photography and planetable methods, preserves the exact footprint of farmsteads and field boundaries that have since been altered by modern industrial agriculture.
