USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The agrarian landscape of Pierce County is defined here by a systematic grid of section roads and small-scale country schoolhouses. Two major rail lines intersect this territory, with the Chicago and North Western running diagonally through Foster, while the Chicago Burlington and Quincy corridor passes through the settlement of Breslau to the north. These rail routes provided the essential link between local grain producers and distant markets during the early 1960s.
