1967 Map of Litchfield South

About this map

The Great Northern railroad corridor anchors the northern edge of this central Minnesota landscape, where the town of Litchfield serves as a regional hub. South of the tracks, the terrain is defined by a dense concentration of glacial lakes and wetlands, including the prominent waters of Lake Ripley, Star Lake, and Lake Minnie-Belle. This mid-century survey documents the rural social fabric of Meeker County through its network of district schools and country churches. Local history is preserved in the location of the Ness Ch and numerous small educational centers like School No 1122 and Evenson Sch. Small farming settlements such as Beckville and Strout sit amidst the agricultural grid, while the presence of several Gravel Pits suggests the localized extraction industry supporting the area's infrastructure during this era.
