1959 Map of Jackson

About this map

Jackson and Mayfield anchor this mid-century topographic portrait of Washington County, where the landscape is defined by the intersection of major transportation corridors and agricultural life. The Chicago North Western and Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroads converge near Rugby Junction, signaling the area's importance as a rail nexus. Small settlements like Cedar Creek and Rockfield are scattered across the terrain, each accompanied by its own community landmarks such as Rockfield Sch and Friedens Ch.
