1952 Map of Putney

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The James River meanders through the southwestern corner of this Brown County landscape, where the Great Northern railway cuts a diagonal path through the prairie towards the settlement of Putney. This survey captures a rural environment defined by its water management and drainage patterns, specifically the expanse of the Putney Slough and the course of Crow Creek. Local educational history is well-documented here, showing the shift in rural infrastructure with both active sites like Riverside Sch and Thompson Sch alongside Harris Sch and Everson Sch. Near the river, Tacoma Park serves as a distinct landmark in an area otherwise dominated by the sprawling townships of Columbia, Claremont, and Henry. The map illustrates a mid-century agricultural landscape shaped by the Missouri River Basin development program.
