1967 Map of Providence

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Lac qui Parle River meanders through the northern reaches of this rural landscape, defining a terrain largely shaped by agricultural drainage and conservation efforts. During the late 1960s, the boundary between Lac qui Parle and Yellow Medicine counties was characterized by a transition from organized townships like Providence and Maxwell to an extensive network of protected lands. The map reveals a high concentration of conservation sites, including the Providence State Wildlife Management Area and the Big Rock State Wildlife Management Area, which preserve the natural prairie-marsh character amidst the surrounding grid of section lines. Small community centers are marked by landmarks such as the Mission Covenant Ch and the St Johns Sch, while the drainage of the land is meticulously documented through features like Tenmile Judicial Ditch No 8 Creek and Spring Creek.
