1962 Map of Moland

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The farming community of Moland sits at the intersection of Rice, Steele, Goodhue, and Dodge counties, anchoring a landscape shaped by the headwaters of the Middle Fork Zumbro River. This 1962 field-checked survey reveals a rural settlement pattern defined by small social centers like Richland Center and essential community landmarks such as Moland Ch and the nearby Townhall. The terrain is drained by Rush Creek and the man-made County Ditch No 2, indicating the historical importance of agricultural drainage in this fertile region. For local historians, the presence of the Merton Cem and several school buildings labeled simply as Sch provides a clear map of the mid-century social geography. The map also includes a working Gravel Pit, reflecting the local industry required for maintaining the grid of section roads that divide the townships of Merton, Richland, and Ellington.
