1951 Map of Pisgah

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Little Missouri River snakes through the center of this rural landscape, defining the boundary between the northern uplands and the fertile creek bottoms to the south. Small, scattered communities like Pisgah and Billstown serve as local anchors, each marked by its own burial ground such as Billstown Cem and Nash Cem. The settlement pattern reflects an era of close-knit rural life, with a high density of country churches including Bruce Chapel, Ball Chapel, and Macedonia Ch. To the south, the Prescott AND NORTHWESTERN rail line cuts across the terrain, linking the agrarian and timber interests of the region. Evidence of the local geography's utility appears in several Flowing Well labels near the river and Gravel Pits concentrated around Wallaceburg, indicating where the earth's resources were being extracted for local infrastructure at the midpoint of the twentieth century.
