1958 Map of Rockford

About this map

The Crow River meanders through the heart of the landscape, defining the boundaries between Wright and Hennepin counties. This 1950s era survey reveals a region defined by small agricultural settlements and a dense network of country schools and parish churches. The importance of local milling is noted at Berning Mill, while the social fabric of the day is preserved through numerous named sites like Oakdale School, Brookdale School, and St Michael Church.
