1954 Map of Star

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The small settlement of Star sits in the northern reaches of this mid-century landscape, where the agricultural plateaus of Steel Creek township meet the deeply dissected drainages of the Verdigre Creek system. The map records a rural infrastructure defined by township-line schools and family burial grounds, such as School No 45 and the Grimton Cem located in the southeastern Walnut Grove district. The topography is dominated by the intricate carving of the North Branch Verdigre Creek and Lamb Creek, which create a complex network of ridges and draws across the Holt and Knox County line. This 1954 field check captures the area's development as part of the Missouri River Basin program, showing a landscape of scattered farmsteads served by landmarks like Cedar Corner Sch and Grimton Sch, connected by a network of unimproved dirt roads and light-duty paths.
