1969 Map of Mankato NW

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Lovewell Reservoir anchors the southeastern landscape of this Jewell County region, where the White Rock Creek valley meets the Nebraska-Kansas state line. The survey captures a rural landscape defined by township boundaries including Harrison, Montana, Holmwood, and Richland. Settlement patterns are traced through communal landmarks like the Olive Hill Ch and several burial grounds including Cleveland Cem and Shaffer Cem. A dense network of drainage, including Norwegian Creek, Taylor Creek, and Spring Creek, dissects the terrain, while numerous small Quarries and gravel pits suggest the local extractive activity that supported area infrastructure during the late 1960s. The presence of Troublesome Creek and Big Timber Creek further illustrates the complex watershed feeding into the reservoir system.
