1970 Map of Kimberly

About this map

The Rice River and its associated wetlands dominate this Aitkin County landscape, defining the boundaries of the Rice Lake National Wildlife Refuge and the Kimberly State Wildlife Management Area. The settlement of Kimberly serves as a small hub along the Burlington Northern railroad, which cuts across the central terrain. This 1970 field-checked survey reveals a complex hydrological network where the Portage Branch feeds into larger bodies like Portage Lake and Rice Lake. For genealogists and local historians, the map documents significant community landmarks including Fleming Ch in the north and the Lansford Cem and Saron Cem sites. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade running parallel to the active line provides a clear look at the evolution of regional transport infrastructure before modern developments further altered these marshy lowlands.
