About this map

Troy and Moscow Mills anchor this topographic study of Lincoln County, showing the region as it transitioned through the 1970s. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Cuivre River and the expansive Cuivre River State Park to the northeast. Transportation patterns are clearly visible, contrasting the active Burlington Northern line with an Old Railroad Grade that traces the river valley.

Genealogists can find several burial sites preserved on this sheet, including Bray Cem and Frieden Cem. The drainage network is particularly intricate here, with numerous family-named or descriptive watercourses like Whitcomb Branch, Buchanan Branch, and Indian Camp Creek feeding into the larger river system. The map also delineates the Lincoln Co St Charles Co boundary in the southern portion, marking the edge of Bedford and Monroe townships.
