1942 Map of McVille

About this map

McVille anchors the southern landscape of this Nelson County territory, positioned along the Great Northern railroad line during the mid-1930s. The region is defined by a dense network of early 20th-century rural infrastructure, particularly its numerous township schools like Field Sch No 4 and Williams Sch. The presence of the Central Farmers Union Hall reflects the strong agrarian social fabric of the time, while several immigrant heritage congregations, such as Center Lutheran Ch and Sogn Ch, are scattered across the townships of Central, Hamlin, and Field.
