1968 Map of Lexington
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
Lexington serves as the central hub of this Morrow County landscape, where the Union Pacific railroad and local geography converge along the banks of Willow Creek. The town's infrastructure in the late 1960s is clearly defined, featuring a Grange Hall, a prominent Grain Elevator, and the County Airport situated just to the west. Outside the main settlement, the map reveals a rural economy dependent on the land, marked by a Gravel Pit and the outlying community at Cutsforth Corner. Steep drainage patterns like Clarks Canyon and Blackhorse Canyon cut through the high ground of Social Ridge, illustrating the challenging terrain that shaped early transportation and property lines. For those tracing family history, the Lexington Cem and scattered landmarks like a Cistern provide specific points of interest for genealogical research in this wheat-growing region.
