1965 Map of Raymond Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Ashley and Raymond townships define this mid-1960s agricultural landscape in Stearns County, where the Northern Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal path across the drainage of Ashley Creek. The survey reveals a highly organized rural infrastructure, documented through a series of numbered district schools such as School No 1968 and School No 1994, which served the farming families of the era. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological management, including Judicial Ditch No 1, which modified the natural flow toward Raymond Lake. Conservation efforts are visible in the large tracts set aside for the Tower State Wildlife Management Area and Padua State Wildlife Management Area. Local genealogy is anchored by established burial grounds like St Johns Cem and Lyman Prairie Cem, providing precise locations for family history research in this section of central Minnesota.
