About this map

Guthrie Center serves as the focal point of this Guthrie County landscape, established where the Mid Raccoon River and Brushy Creek systems converge. The map reflects a rural economy in transition during the early 1980s, where an Old Railroad Grade near Monteith marks the path of former rail commerce, while the development of Lake Panorama to the northeast suggests a shift toward recreation.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved across the townships of Victory, Valley, Cass, and Jackson, including Victory Union Cem and Resurrection Cem. The presence of the County Care Facility and a Hospital in the county seat highlights the area's role as a regional service hub. To the southeast, the South Raccoon River winds past the Lenon Mill State Wildlife Area, anchoring the landscape in its natural and industrial heritage.
