1956 Map of Miscol SW

About this map

High Bank Creek winds through this rural portion of Corson County, shaping a landscape defined by isolated homesteads and township divisions. Surveyed in the mid-1950s as part of a Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, the map captures the region's sparse settlement pattern. Key community markers are limited to essential schoolhouses, such as Little Oak Sch and Lone Tree Sch, which served as the primary social and educational hubs for families across the Fairview and Little Oak districts. The map documents numerous individual elevation points and bench marks across the terrain, reflecting the detailed topographical work required for land management and water resource planning during this era of Midwestern development.
