1968 Map of Goodhue West

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Minnesota Memorial Hardwood State Forest blankets the northern bluffs of this Goodhue County landscape, where the terrain breaks into deep coulees and wooded ridges. In the late 1960s, the rural character of the region is defined by a dense network of homesteads and social centers like the Townhall near Ryan. The transition from agrarian upland to the lowlands of Hay Creek reveals a history of land use marked by numerous quarries and gravel pits, reflecting the local mineral economy. Religious life is well-documented through several country churches and burial grounds, including St Columbkille Ch and the Zion Ch Cem. To the east, an Old Railroad Grade indicates a shifting transportation landscape near the settlement of Claybank, while the village of Goodhue serves as a concentrated hub at the edge of the survey area.
