1960 Map of Madison

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Crowleys Ridge dominates the western portion of this St. Francis County landscape, providing a sharp elevation contrast to the low-lying wetlands of the St Francis River basin. This topographic divide defines the local settlement patterns, with historic communities like Newcastle and Madison positioned near the ridge's edge or along the river's winding course. The 1960 survey, updated with 1976 aerial revisions, captures a network of rural life and transit, anchored by the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad and numerous local landmarks like Doublehead Bluff and Burnt Mill Bluff.
