About this map

Meriden serves as the central hub of this Jefferson County landscape, situated at the intersection of a grid-like road network and surrounded by a drainage system including Rock Creek and Claywell Cr. The town's historical foundations are evident in the presence of the Meriden Cem and Saint Aloysius Cem, which sit west and south of the town center. The topography is defined by the winding paths of several streams, notably Muddy Cr and its various forks, which carve through the land before feeding into the northern reaches of Perry Lake in the southeast corner.

Small-scale aviation activity is a distinct feature of this era, with both Buena Terra Airport and Blackhawk Airport located south of the main settlement. The map provides a detailed view of the rural-residential character of the region, where family-named roads like Grace Edmonds Dr and Dickinson Rd reflect the local heritage. This document captures the transition from open agricultural fields to organized township blocks as the area continues to develop around its established watercourses and transit routes.
