About this map

The town of Sutherland and the village of Calumet anchor this Northwestern Iowa landscape, situated along the Chicago and North Western rail line. The map highlights a typical agricultural grid of the early 1970s, shaped by the drainage patterns of Willow Creek, Nelson Creek, and Gray Creek. Significant local landmarks include the Liberty Cem and a prominent Radio Tower near the border of O'Brien Co and Cherokee Co. This survey reveals the industrial and infrastructure markers of the era, from the various Gravel Pits to the water and utility infrastructure servicing these rural communities. The map provides a clear record of the townships including Liberty, Cedar, and Amherst as they appeared just before further modernization of the regional transport network.
