1913 Map of Galena

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

The Galena River valley and its surrounding driftless uplands define this early twentieth-century landscape, dominated by a dense concentration of mining operations and river commerce. This survey reveals the intense industrial activity of the era, with the Tenstrike Mine, Blackjack Mine, and Furnace Lead Mill illustrating the region's mineral wealth. The Mississippi River frontage is a complex network of side channels and islands, including Hale Island and Scott Island, with the Bellevue Ferry providing a vital cross-river connection near the town of Bellevue.
