1955 Map of Mac Farlane Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Illinois River flows through this high mountain ranching landscape, where a sophisticated network of irrigation ditches like the Oklahoma No 1 Ditch and Midland Ditch reveals the critical importance of water management in Jackson County. Scattered family holdings including the Allard Ranch, Graf Ranch, and Anderson Ranch define the settlement pattern, anchored by the namesake Mac Farlane Reservoir. In the northern section, the Union Pacific rail line cuts across the terrain near Peterson Ridge. This mid-century survey also captures evidence of local transitions, notably the Larand School (Abandoned) located near the Everhard and Everhard Ditch, serving as a tangible marker of changing rural demographics and the consolidation of early frontier education centers.
