1956 Map of Lake Byron

About this map

Huron Colony sits at the center of this Beadle County landscape, where the meandering James River and Foster Creek converge. The area's water-dependent economy is evidenced by the presence of a Fish Hatchery on the western shore of Lake Byron and a series of Flowing Wells distributed throughout the townships of Pleasant View, Fairfield, and Iowa. These artesian wells were critical infrastructure for the agricultural developments mapped here in the mid-1950s.
