1944 Map of Montgomery
USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
Montgomery and the adjacent community of Cannelburg serve as the primary hubs of activity in this 1944 survey of Daviess County. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad runs east-west through the center of the sheet, paralleling the Washington Baltimore and Bedford Road, a major thoroughfare reflecting the era's connectivity between regional centers. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the North Fork and South Fork Prairie Creek, which are fed by numerous man-made drainage systems like Bethell Ditch and Swamp Ditch, indicating the historical efforts to manage the wetlands of Barr and Bogard townships for agriculture.
