The Black River corridor defines this 1920s landscape as it winds through Jackson and Monroe Counties, serving as the central artery for a region of high ridges and narrow valleys. This advance sheet captures the rural infrastructure of the era, showing a high density of one-room schoolhouses like Sunny Vale Sch and Irving School No 4 serving dispersed farmsteads. The terrain is marked by family-named landmarks and distinct coulees, particularly in the south near Waville and Upper Burns.
