1967 Map of Hitchcock
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
Hitchcock serves as the primary hub in this prairie landscape, where the Chicago and North Western railroad cuts a diagonal line across the grid of township boundaries. Surveyed as part of the Department of the Interior's development program for the Missouri River Basin, the topography is defined by subtle depressions and low rises, punctuated by human-made features like the Flowing Well and a Water Tank near the town center. Local history is anchored by the presence of Tulare Cem in the northwest and Graceland Cem to the northeast, offering critical points of reference for genealogists tracing early families in Tulare or Crandon townships. The map also records the rural infrastructure of the late 1960s, including several Gravel Pits and a network of field lines that reveal the agricultural footprint across Belmont and Garfield townships.
