1965 Map of Ostrander
USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
Ostrander serves as a focal point in this mid-1960s landscape, situated along the Chicago Great Western railroad line. The map illustrates a rural borderland where the South Branch Root River winds past the Root River Country Club near the northern edge, while the southern reaches cross into Iowa along the Upper Iowa River. The region is defined by its agricultural and extractive identity, evidenced by numerous Gravel Pit and Quarry sites scattered across townships like Beaver and Bloomfield. For those researching local history, the map preserves the exact locations of civic landmarks like the Townhall and secluded burial grounds including Bloomfield Cem and Bethany Cem. The convergence of multiple water systems, including the Little Iowa River and Beaver Creek, highlights the complex drainage patterns of the Mower and Fillmore county lines.
