1971 Map of Paoli

About this map

Paoli sits at the intersection of prairie commerce and rail transit in this high plains landscape. The Burlington Northern railroad cuts a straight diagonal across the northern township, providing a vital link for the agricultural community. Water drainage is defined by the confluence of the North Fork Frenchman Creek and the South Fork Frenchman Creek, which merge to form the main stem of Frenchman Creek. These intermittent waterways, along with Sandy Creek to the south, carve subtle relief into the terrain.
