1945 Map of Pelican Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Glacial prairie potholes and an extensive network of rural school districts define this mid-century landscape straddling the McLean Co and Sheridan Co line. The terrain is dominated by water bodies such as Pelican Lake, Cherry Lake, and Brush Lake, around which a dense system of local education was organized. The map reveals the granularity of the township system, with numerous numbered facilities like Byersville Sch No 4 and Medicine Hill Sch No 4 serving the scattered farming community.
