1970 Map of Prescott West

About this map

Prescott serves as the focal point of this Nevada County landscape, situated at the junction of the Missouri Pacific and Prescott and Northwestern railroads. This 1970 survey illustrates a developed civic infrastructure including the Courthouse, a Hospital, and the County Fairground, while the surrounding rural areas are marked by a high density of country churches and family-named cemeteries. These sites, such as Beards Chapel Cem and De Ann Cem, reveal the long-standing community roots that persist alongside industrial elements like multiple pipelines and an aqueduct.
