1958 Map of Murdock

About this map

The small prairie town of Murdock serves as the focal point of this late 1950s survey, situated along the Great Northern railroad line. The landscape is a study in early mid-century rural planning, featuring a prominent Municipal Landing Strip and a series of township boundaries like Dublin, Kildare, and Louriston that reveal the organized settlement patterns of western Minnesota. Waterways such as Mud Creek and Shakopee Creek define the drainage of the agricultural terrain.
