1958 Map of Jimtown

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Jimtown and the surrounding ranchlands sit at the boundary of the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, where the landscape is defined by the winding course of Rosebud Creek. Published in 1960 from surveys conducted in the late 1950s, this sheet details the rural infrastructure of the region, including the McKay Ranch and Bailey Ranch. The presence of a Sawmill and a small Airstrip (Private) near Little Cottonwood Creek suggests a specialized local economy centered on timber and remote transport. A lone Cem and the settlement at Blackstone provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family roots in this corner of the Rosebud and Big Horn County line. The terrain transitions from the broad flats of Rye Grass Creek to more complex breaks such as Yellow Fox Gulch and Davidson Hill.
