1978 Map of Kingsburg

About this map

Emanuel Creek and its tributary, Little Emanuel Creek, carve a winding path through this agricultural portion of Bon Homme County, defining the drainage patterns south of Avon. The landscape is a transition between organized townships such as Franklin and Albion, showing a rural infrastructure of country schools like Albion Sch and several denominational burial grounds including Evangelical Cem and St Leo Cem. A notable shift in transportation is evident where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad operates in the north, while further south, an Old Railroad Grade near Kingsburg suggests a line no longer in service. The presence of the Drive-in Theater near the Tyndall Corporate Boundary and the Springfield Municipal Airport reflects the mid-to-late 20th-century development of the region's recreational and transit facilities.
