1950 Map of Kersey
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
The South Platte River and the Cache La Poudre River converge at The Delta, shaping a landscape defined by an intricate network of irrigation systems. Mapped in 1950, the area shows a sophisticated agricultural infrastructure relying on the Greeley No 2 Ditch, Eaton Ditch, and Ogilvy Ditch. Local education and community life are anchored at landmarks like Lone Tree Sch and the Peter Brown School, while small settlements such as Gill, Alden, and Lowe dot the plains. The southern portion is dominated by the Union Pacific railroad corridor, which services the town of Kersey and the nearby Spanish Village. This era of development is further marked by the Greeley Municipal Airport and numerous gravel pits, indicating a mid-century shift toward industrial and transportation expansion in Weld County.
