1963 Map of Plainview
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The town of Plainview serves as a central hub in this 1960s agricultural survey of Pierce County, positioned at the critical junction of the Chicago and North Western and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroads. The landscape is defined by the drainage basins of Dry Creek and Willow Creek, with the town itself featuring established social landmarks like the Plainview Country Club and the Plainview Cemetery. The surrounding rural townships, including Bazile and Crawford, reveal a network of one-room schoolhouses such as School No 66 and School No 48. Genealogists will find value in the scattered burial grounds like Pleasant Ridge Cem and Stark Valley Cem, while the presence of several Gravel Pits north of town points to the local extractive industry of the mid-century era.
