1982 Map of Glenville
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
The Shell Rock River winds through this Freeborn County landscape, anchoring the settlement of Glenville at its bend. This 1980s-era documentation shows a region defined by its water and transport, where Albert Lea Lake and the Helmer Myre State Park dominate the northern terrain. The infrastructure reflects a heavy reliance on the rail corridor, with the Chicago Illinois and Central Gulf and North Western lines crossing the prairie. Local history is deeply embedded in the rural corners, from the North Round Prairie Cem and Round Prairie Ch in the west to the small siding at Murtaugh and the southernmost village of Gordonsville. Numerous gravel pits along the river suggest the local extractive industries that shaped the area's development alongside its agricultural roots.
