About this map

Lindsay serves as the primary hub in this Platte County landscape, situated where several section-line roads converge near the Lindsay Post Office. The township patterns are clearly defined by an extensive grid of numbered avenues and roads, including 445 Ave and 490 ST, which facilitate the region's agricultural economy. This rural character is anchored by a collection of faith-based landmarks and family enterprises, such as the Borg Dairy Farm to the southwest.

Drainage across the quadrangle is dominated by the meandering course of Shell Creek, which flows through the center, while South Fork Union Creek and Looking Glass Creek touch the peripheral corners. The map is a valuable resource for genealogists, as it documents several historical burial grounds, including Saint Pauls Cemetery, Saint Bernard Cemetery, Holy Family Cemetery, and Saint Johns Cemetery, which represent the early settlement nodes of Saint Bernard and the surrounding countryside.
