1964 Map of Oglesville

About this map

The Black River dominates this landscape, winding through a complex network of sloughs and ditches that speak to the historical drainage and reclamation efforts along the Butler and Clay County line. Small communities and landmarks like Oglesville, Carola, and Fagus are positioned at the margins of the low-lying wetlands, often sheltered by topographic rises like Gillis Bluff or Melville Ridge. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade and numerous water control features, such as Little Caney Ditch and the Pumping Station, illustrates the mid-century transition from a seasonal flood-plain into an engineered agricultural landscape.
