1968 Map of Hazen West

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Knife River and Antelope Creek dominate this Mercer County landscape, where the local economy in the late 1960s was defined by coal extraction and a robust rail network. Extensive Strip Mine operations are evident north of the Northern Pacific line, including specialized infrastructure near the small community of Truax. To the east, the edge of Hazen serves as a residential anchor, positioned near the confluence of local waterways and the railroad. Water management is a visible priority on the land, evidenced by the Schramm Dam and its associated Spillway Elev 1805. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of rural burial grounds, including Wolfe Cem, St Martins Cem, and St Mathews Cem, providing a clear look at the spatial relationship between these community landmarks and the expanding industrial footprint of the era.
