USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Elm River and Moccasin Creek converge in this mid-century portrait of Brown County, where the meandering watercourses dictated the early layout of regional transport and infrastructure. The small settlement of Ordway sits at a critical junction of the Chicago and North Western railroad, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural townships. The landscape is dotted with evidence of early rural community life, featuring family-named education sites like Thorson Sch and the Prairie View Sch.
